[ 06.07.2003 ] - De/Vision split with manager Lorenz Macke |
| Lorenz Macke and Steffen (DE/VISION) |
In recent statement from De/Vision and Lorenz Macke, dated June 30th, both parties announced that after 15 years of partnership, the members of De/Vision and their manager have decided to part ways. The reason for the split is said to be that «a common vision is no longer possible» (you can read full statement here)
We asked Mr. Lorenz Macke for some comments. He said following: «The musical development of the band and their management were not on the same level. The personal development of the band and their manager were no longer reconcilable. The expectations of the market were too differential and didn't allow for a realistic partnership. Misunderstandings between band and management were too often to be negotiated.»
So seems that De/Vision really will continue without any management (like many synthpop bands). We hope to know some news soon from band and their new official web site www.devision-music.de.
As for Lorenz Macke, he's planning to sign new bands next year, because this year he will push forward the bands that he already have, especially Colony5, L'image, L'avantgarde and 2 ex-De/Vision members.
