Together with Marco Haas aka T.Raumschmiere and Florian Schmieg, Daniel Meteo runs the small music empire known as Random Noize Musick, which encompasses labels like Shitkatapult, Musick, and Meteosound. Meteo never felt the need to impose stylistic constraints – the musical spaces occupied by the now-twenty-year-old Shitkatapult or by Meteosound are defined by the open edges and open ends of their various artists and of those artists’ music. The same can be said about Meteo's DJ set, for which the businessman and solo artist incorporates genres as disparate as techno and reggae into a single mix.
Daniel Meteo - HomepageAbout »SKM 60«
Even if your own memory might initially recall it otherwise, 1997 was a good year for pop music. After all, three labels were founded that still help to define the sound of contemporary pop: Shitkatapult, Karaoke Kalk, and Monika Enterprise. They released and still release albums by T.Raumschmiere and Apparat, Bill Wells and Hauschka, Barbara Morgenstern and Gudrun Gut. Put briefly, they specialise in visionary sounds, clever lyrics (when there are lyrics at all), and yes indeed – hits. All three labels survived the radical industry changes of the early 00s and remain relevant in both pop and electronic music. At »Pop-Kultur«, these Berlin indies celebrate twenty years of label work in a programme focus entitled »SKM60«. The focus consists of concerts, DJ sets, and talks.
