from the Faust main site recent news: Uwe Nettelbeck, founder and mentor of Faust, died on January 17th. Jean-Hervé Peron made this statement about the passing of the man who first formed and inspired Faust and was a key creative force behind the group in their early years;
"Besides being a sharp-witted but yet charming and loving husband, father and grandfather, he was an outstanding cook, a writer who always generated deep emotions and interest, and a genius, selfless music producer. Thank you Uwe for all you have done for our music. Faust is your work, no doubt ! Your work will outlast all of us. May your soul rest in peace. My sincere sympathy to his family Petra, Anouchka, Sandra, Elisha and Elsa."

Uwe Nettelbeck died on the 17th January 2007. As well as being a journalist, he also founded the legendary Faust in 1968, a year that marked the beginning of Germany's musical revolution and a decade of terrorism. Nettelbeck was right in the middle of it all. With Faust he produced the music, designed the album covers, including that iconic X-rayed fist raised in revolt, contributing to the overall Faust experience. Nettelbeck and Faust have been a huge influence on every generation of musicians that have followed, especially many of those hosted here on Brainwashed. Our heartfelt condolences are offered to his friends and family.
Jean-Hervé Péron posted the following message yesterday on his website, http://www.art-errorist.de/ - Art-Errorist : Further information about Nettelbeck and his work with Faust can be found at the http://www.faust-pages.com/ - Faust Pages site.

Greatly enjoyed Faust.
The first band to introduce me to the avant garde.
Bought the first album on a whim...never looked back.
Thank You Uwe. ------------- Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan ringed by ants and musing over man. |
