There is the theory that great art only comes from suffering, sacrifice and deep pain. Now every person can think what they want about that.

Regardless of whether you want to pour your criticism of the system into punk in the GDR or establish a suitable club sound in precarious times in a dying Detroit, produce fresh R'n'B with your all-female group or are simply looking for space for your music in present-day Vienna, delight sunny Greece with frosty Cold Wave or - if you have succeeded - simply want to survive all this success.
