And still the Ostrock

Rostock. “I often refer to the Begriff ‘Ostrock’ in the Verleidingenheit as Kainsmal empfunden, the mittlerweile is the mirror of the level,” says Dirk Zöllner. Der Musiker, 1962, went to the end of the GDR, in 1987 the band Chicorée, später started as Die Zöllner. Der Löwenanteil der Karriere von Dirk Zöllner sweetheart all things after 1990. “Die Verkäufer brauchen anscheinend aine Schublade”, says his heute zum Ostrock-Phänomen.

In the concert area it functions constantly on the Ostalgief factor. Inzwischen is the Bezeichnung Ostrock and had become swampy. Künstler mit musikalischer Ost-Vergangenheit, wie Rammstein, gehören nicht dazu, Keimzeit wiederum yes. If the Knorkator is no longer a man, he will be heard at all.

The bands are present in MV – like Karussell, Silly or Karat

Auch 35 years after the Mauerfall since Ostbands noch unterwegs. Not everything anymore, aberviele. Regularity is the Formationen in MV präsent – ​​​​so Karussell, Silly or Karat. Beim Ostrock is the Bezeichnung Rock that is not as good as it is not. Damit is connected to each other in a song, together with other songs in their Freudenberg family. The music is played in Richtung Jazz, while Manfred Krug is active in the war and the singer Uschi Brüning in the Verbindung with Günther Fischer, still not. Those Leute bowls. Often it is watching publications on the soundtrack of the Jugendzeit.

Musical Eastern Experience followed in Valen Formen

The staff is low to the best skills: Die Stern-Combo Meißen, long legend, where the late singer and keyboard player Manuel Schmid have built his new life. A rock legend with Panta Rhei was revived by their Ur-Bassist Henning Protzmann. Auch Lift, Silly of Engerling is nevertheless Renft.

Another art of musical instruments plays between the musician Manuel Schmid and Dirk Zöllner, who participate in one of the joint Konzerten dem Ostrock-Erbe. „The best ballads from the land for the present time“, heißt the program of Schmid and Zöllner. In Greifswald the music player Thomas Putensen played along with his music in the GDR. Other art lovers live in your personal Songbook – with Veronika Fischer, Dirk Michaelis, Dieter “Maschine” Birr or IC Falkenberg.

Prägende GDR-Rockmusiker is inzwischen verstorben

Auch Band-Zusammenschlüsse, met “Ostrock in Klassik” or der “Sachsendreier” (Electra, Lift und Stern-Combo Meißen), funktionierten. Inspired by “Sachsendreier” Electricity by Karussell ersetzt.

All things have changed in their lives in the Szene zgeschlagen. Prägende GDR-Rockmusiker, with Tamara Danz, Reinhard Lakomy, Holger Biege, Stephan Trepte, Reinhard Fißler, Franz Bartzsch, Fritz Puppel or Thomas Kurzhals, are no longer among us. So the Ostrock-Szene was launched, went to the Puhdys, City of Electra.

50. Karat-Bandgeburtstag will be announced in 2025 with a larger Tour

The well-known Ostrock bands were often rock bands at the end of their career – they played a little further. So I come to Pankow years later on an ausgedehnte Abschiedstour, on January 31, 2025 at the Rostocker Mau-Club Station. The Musiker von Rockhaus has come in the years with my Akustik-Set underwegs, in Rostock on March 14, 2025. Auch die Musiker von Karat machen unbeirrt weiter: Sie feiern nachstes Jahr in 50. Bandgeburtstag and tun dies on großer Tour, plays below the other will be November 29, 2025 in Schwerin and December 30, 2025 in Rostock.

Der Ostrock is not offensive. Aber: “If you still can’t find it, we’ll find new songs under the rubric of DDR music,” so Dirk Zöllner. There is definitely something different. “I live with my people in the East, I live in the East!”
