UnknownmiX 1
1983 – 1992 983 – 1992
UnknownmiX gründeten sich 1983 in Zürich und existierten knapp ein gutes Jahrzent. Die erste Formation bestand aus Magda Vogel voc, Knut Remond drums, Ernst Thoma synth, Blüemli sax, Hairi Vogel guit und für das visuelle Erscheinungsbild, dies für die Live- Auftritte, sowie Tonträgerhüllen und Plakate war Hans-Rudolf Lutz zuständig. Er galt im eigentlichen Sinne als vollwertiges Bandmitglied. Die Band wollte Grenzen sprengen und Extreme ausloten, in der Musik wie im Gesang und in den später verstorbenen Hans-Rudolf Lutz kreierten Visuals. Ihr Elektro-Rock bewegte sich zwischen Bekanntem und Verzerrtem, war radikal, nicht immer einfach – und manchmal seiner Zeit voraus. Neben zahlreichen Tourneen durch ganz Europa produzierten UnknownmiX mehrere heute kaum noch aufzufindende MC, dann natürlich LP’s, 7“, CD’s und 1989 das 45-minütiges Live-Video for eyes and ears.
Ab 1987 widmeten sie sich die 3 Hauptmitglieder auch anderen Musikprojekten; Magda Vogel dem avantgardistischen Vokaltrio Eisgesänge mit Dorothea Schürch und Brigitte Schär, der Poprockband DominaDea oder der Funkjazzband Jick the Rapper, mit der sie 1995 auf Russlandtournee ging. Danach konzentrierte sie sich bis heute unter anderem auf den Vogelfreien Frauenchor. Knut Remond war gleichzeitig bis 1994 Teil des Projekt/Band 16/17 (1983-94), dies vor allem mit dem Basler Performer & Komponist Alex Buess. Seit einigen Jahren lebt er in Berlin und führt den Geräuschladen ohrenhoch, dies ist eine Hörgalerie und eine Schule für Kinder und Jugendliche für elektroakustische Musik, Sonic Art, Acousmatics, Sounddesign, Hörspiel, Computer Musik, Soundscape, Soundwalk und Klanginstallationen. Ernst Thoma bewegt sich bis heute in den Bereichen der elektronischen Musik, des Sounddesigens und der Multimedia-Anwendungen tätig. Ebenso arbeitet er mit visuellen und auditiven Medien und führt das Sounddesign Studio in Weil am Rein.
