arbeit

1. Arbeit - polish industrial project arisen in 2008, as secondary project of creator of Hoarforst. Its music describes, in ironic way, times of real socialism in Poland.

2. Brecht/Eisler-songs, revised german folksongs, songs from the working-class movement in new adaptions by OliverAugst, Marcel Daemgen and Christoph Korn

Rearranged songs, folk songs, Romanticism, socialist worker songs, songs from Brecht/Eisler, and many more form the core of the band’s work.

Founded in 1998, the original cast of the band “arbeit“ (“work”) – Marcel Daemgen, Oliver Augst and Christoph Korn – so far has solely published studio material. In fact, they published CDs in a cycle of three years. Two of them were studio co productions with a German radio station called “DeutschlandRadio Köln” (“German Radio Cologne”). For the time being the band is working on a new CD titled “JUGEND” (“youth”), which includes rearranged songs taken from German Romanticism (for instance Mahler, Wagner, Brahms, Schubert, and many more).
