Software (band) participant Peter Mergener
History
The group released their records under the IC (Innovative Communication) label, which also released a number of other electronic musicians, including Klaus Schulze and the Neue Deutsche Welle group Ideal.
During a brief hiatus from 1990 to 1992, Weisser produced four albums using the Software name with a different group composition: Fragrance with Klaus Schulze and Georg Stettner, and Modesty-Blaze I / II and Cave with Billy Byte (Stephan Töteberg).After the dissolution of Software in 1999, the two musicians went their separate ways: Peter Mergener continues to compose and play electronic music, while Michael Weisser first founded the group G.E.N.E. (Grooving Electronic Natural Environments), and is currently, among other things, active as a media artist.
The project released one other album in 2007. In September 2017 Weisser without Mergener released six albums under the Software name. Earlier that year, Vaporwave artist George Clanton re-released the band's 1988 album Digital-Dance on his 100% Electronica label.Members
