  • Stromkern is a band that blends electronic music and hip-hop. The band was formed in 1994 by James "Ned" Kirby. Kirby was originally a DJ in Madison, Wisconsin as a teenager, experimenting under the moniker "Flowers for Ravers" before founding Stromkern. Disenchanted with the music he was receiving as a DJ, he decided to start his own band. His early compositions included the German-language "Konzentrationslager" and "Aussicht vom Rande der Nacht" as well as a cover of Nick Cave's "The Mercy Seat", all of which found favor on compilations. He was soon signed to German label Kodex/Sushia Light, and the resulting CD "Flicker Like a Candle" announced Stromkern to the club music scene. Stromkern now records for dependent in Europe and WTII Records in North America. After two successful albums and several singles as essentially a solo artist, Kirby recruited musician/producer and friend Leone Buchieri to join the lineup for "Armageddon. " Additional live members Matt Berger, Rob Wentz and later Tyler Newman joined the band for the recording of "Light it Up. " The most recent live line-up includes Kirby and Buchieri, along with Dan Clark and Andrew Sega (of Iris and The Alpha Conspiracy).
