Radio Osaka

Welcome to the Radio Osaka Website

Radio Osaka is a group of musicians from Switzerland that "definitely breath the atmosphere of a post-rock planet, but filter it through some pretty odd apparatus" (Paul Stump, CD Review in The Wire, Jan. 1997). They have released three CDs: "Radio Osaka" (1993), "X Fade" (1996) and and the instrumental remix disc "Broken Symmetry" (1996). Currently they are mixing their fourth disc "Solarize", set for release in spring 1999.


Radio Osaka is:

Andi Czech: voice
Stephan Thelen: guitar, samples, synth, loops
Christian Kuntner: bass guitar, cello, samples
Fredi Fl�kiger: drums, percussion, guitar
Andi Brugger: drums
Tommy Meier: tenor sax, bass clarinet
DJ Crazee Bo: turntables


Here is a sound clip of Alphaville from their CD "X Fade". Is it Heady Metal ? Or is it Heavy Mental ? For Paul Stump it's an instrumental that "sees a fight break out between King Crimson's Fripp and Megadeth's Dave Mustaine". Please also listen to Seed of Change
