Chris Imler, standing drummer, dandy with offbeat and "grandseigneur of the Berlin underground" (taz)
accentuated countless Berlin music affairs (The Golden Showers, Die Türen, Peaches, Soffy O, Jens Friebe,
Oum Shatt, Driver&Driver and many more) and has been playing the stages of Europe as a solo artist for a
decade. The kinetic magic of his wicket playing style makes him the voodoo priest of Berlin's music scene.
As befits an avant-gardist, the person of Chris Imler is an integral part of his work. His aura oscillates
between eternal street boy and dubious magician and stands for a longing for an uncompromising,
glamorous, crazy, but at the same time somehow uncorrupted life, alert to any bullshit. The journey into the
abyss can be an adventure, and a better companion is really hard to wish for.
He appeared on several albums (incl. a soundinstallation at the Robert Wilson Institute in NY). Under the
name Chris Imler he released: „Arbeiterjunge“ (Meew), „Nervös" (Staatsakt), „Maschinen und Tiere“
(Staatsakt), „Country Club“ (Rio), and recently „Operation Schönheit“ (Fun in the Church).

„The sounds of a city neurotic, a prophet who sees the revolution coming...and the master of understatement

„A great apocalyptic mix with abysmally humorous lyrics, from life between Dada, glamour and
incorruptibility....“ - BAYRISCHER RUNDFUNK, DE
