Der Kosmonaut is a radical international poet and musician originally from New York City. He began his professional music career in 1994 when he produced North America’s first Jungle/DrumNBass rave which was the first mass Techno/Electronic rave party in North America. In August of 1994, Der Kosmonaut was part of the closing act of Woodstock ’94, which was the 25th anniversary of the original Woodstock concert. Angered by his anti corporate message and onstage call for sharing and unity, he was shut down after a few minutes on stage.

Der Kosmonaut is also a Slam Poet. He’s made Austrian literary history being the first non-native German poet and very first person of color to ever win a Poetry Slam in Austria. He’s considered to be one of the founders of Slam Poetry in Austria.

Der Kosmonaut takes his revolutionary poetry against capitalism and fascism and performs it with Electronic Industrial beats using the rhythm and beat of the New York subway. He will be performing all the songs from his forthcoming album “Out Of The Loop.”
