InfluencesWhat are the influences that contributed to sound my music how it sounds now? When you listen you will recognize that i listened a lot to keziah jones (guitar), g.love n special sauce (singing/rapping), manu chao (singing and guitar), beck (singing, noises and sound texture).

I do listen to lenny kravitz, too. I especially love his bass lines. Then i do listen to tons of zero7, morcheeba, moloko, nouvelle vague, fat freddys drop, hilltop hoods, john butler trio, patrice, tricky, pj harvey, massive attack, dandy warhols.

I do have my all time favorites which influenced me the since 1990 years: Pixies, Sonic Youth, Beastie Boys and Radiohead.

Sounds Likesee influences ... but mostly something between manu chao, keziah jones, beck and jack johnson

   About Al-berto and the fried Bikinis
The Biography is closely related to the town we are from. It is Engelberg, Central Switzerland. We got there a pool of musicians from where you can always pull power for whatever project. Over the years Engelberg has seen lots of bands around the same musicians. Al-berto and the fried Bikinis is one of this projects and started in 2005. Some of the members have been playing together since 1991.

The fried Bikinis project works like this: I go travelling to surf and climb around the world. There, I have the time to meet wonderful people, weird people, people like me, people completely different. All that makes my mind tumble, sometimes my heart, too.

Back home or on the road i record the inspirations and revelations and if there is a concert I ask Hellrider and Gasguzzler from the Toenails to support me and have a good time. It feels like a perfect formula.
