Hampejs & Schulze - Electronic Body Music / German Version

Electronic Body Music – The Ultimate Book on EBM History

Electronic Body Music (EBM) has shaped the music world – but its origins and development long remained in the dark. The book "Electronic Body Music" by Yuma Hampejs and Marcel Schulze fills this gap, offering an in-depth journey through the genre's history, influences, and global spread.

What began in 2019 as a spontaneous idea developed into a comprehensive work with contributions from over 150 musicians, photographers, promoters, DJs, bloggers, and labels. From Düsseldorf's Ratinger Hof to the worldwide EBM phenomenon, the book covers all facets of the scene.

With 11 chapters, over 170 images, and stories about 32 bands and 16 scene protagonists from 17 countries, it offers an unparalleled documentation of EBM culture. More than 900 bands are mentioned – from legends to hidden gems.
