Zweieck Recordings announces the release of two essential releases.
On June 17th 2011 Haujobb will break the 8 year period of silence.
The new sound is called "Dead Market" and it´s the preview to the full length album "NEW WORLD MARCH", coming out september 2011.
After touring with Recoil with his project Architect, which lead to the official Remix for Depeche Mode in collaboration with Alan Wilder it is about time for Daniel Myer and his long-standing colleague Dejan Samardzic to pitch the electronic music world into chaos.
No one else than the living legend Paul Kendall mixed the single version.
Paul is famous for his Mute-fame as various classic acts like Depeche Mode, Nitzer Ebb, Wire or Renegade Soundwave owe their sound to this man.
And other release to look forward to is the newxest Patenbrigade Wolf. It’s called 'schallplattenunterhalter' and it was back then the official term for official disk jockeys in the german democratic republic.
This term was chosen simply to avoid the English 'disk jockey'. As only a certified spu was permitted to spin in front of a bigger audience.
On this limited ep they present 4+1 banging electro-smashers ranging somewhere between gdr-educational tv, (n)ostalghia and seminal future electronics. Including on this new EP there will be a brand new pop song with the hilarious name “Der brigadier trinkt bier”.
Be quick as it’s limited to 500 copies, in (n)ostalgic gdr-7"-single-design plus 7" cover!

Absolute Body Control formed early 1980 by Dirk Ivens (voice/synths) , Mark De Jonghe (synths) and Veerle De Schepper (backing vocals)
Soon after the lineup changed and Eric Van Wonterghem became Dirk's musical partner untill 1984 when the band was put on non active and both members where or are still involved in projects like THE KLINIK, INSEKT,DIVE, BLOK 57, SONAR and MONOLITH.
ABC released a 7" single "Is There An Exit?" (1981) , appeared worldwide on several compilation albums / tapes and became one of the first Belgian electronic acts who proved to be succesfull on stage.
In total they released 5 tapes and a compilation cd "Eat This" but the public intrest was still there and it took them over 22 years to reform in 2006 and play at the most important Indie festivals all over the world.
Since a few years now the complete backcatalogue is available again and with the release of the long awaited new Album „Shattered Illusion“ (2010) the interest and success of Absolute Body Control was never so popular.
After the well recieved MCD "Sorrow" wich was the first Single taken from the album and released on the Sonic Seducer label , it's time for the 2nd MCD output "Surrender no resistance".
Both MCD's will be combined for the digital (Sleepless) and vinyl ( Minimal Maximal) release called "Mindless Intrusion".
This years ABC exists for 3 decades and still goin strong !
