Already his first release, the EP Kisskiss, and the following album Rough Cuts in 2004 provided him an immediate breakthrough in the international electronic music scene. His unique sound, his specific approach to music production and the unorthodox combination of musical genres soon made him the star of an uprising scene. With his subsequent albums Seven and Storm (2005), Shine (2007), Coco (2009), The Princess (2012), The Invisible Girl (Parov Stelar Trio, 2013), The Art of Sampling (2013), The Demon Diaries (2015), Live @ Pukkelpop (2016), The Burning Spider (2017), Voodoo Sonic - The Album (2020) and more than 20 EPs he was able to strengthen and even improve his status until today and he became the favorite of a huge fan community. Parov Stelar has been in heavy request for collaborations and as a remixer in all these years. He worked with Tony Bennett & Lady Gaga, Lana Del Rey, Lukas Graham, Marvin Gaye, Bryan Ferry, Klingande and many more.
Parov Stelar won 10 Amadeus Austrian Music Awards (7x Best Electronic/Dance, 2x Best Live Act and 1x Best Album). Next to various top chart positions in Europe the track The Sun in 2018 and the track Brass Devil in 2020 reached No. 1 in the electronic US iTunes charts. The song All Night reached Double Platinum for more than 100,000 tracks sold in Italy and Parov Stelar received Gold Awards for All Night in Germany and The Princess, The Art Of Sampling, The Demon Diaries and The Burning Spider in Austria.
Parov Stelar has 1 Million Facebook fans, more than 500 Million YouTube views and more than 500 Million Spotify plays. His tracks have been used on more than 700 compilations worldwide (e.g. Hotel Costes, Buddha Bar, ...) and have been used in numerous TV shows, TV series and movies. There are dozens of TV ads with his music e.g. Audi, Bacardi, Courvoisier, Colgate, Cosmopolitan, Escada, Fiat, Google, Microsoft, Motorola, Nespresso, Paco Rabanne, Target, Telecom Italia and Vodafone to name just a few.
After Parov Stelar devoted himself increasingly to his second great love, the visual arts, during the pandemic and presented a museum exhibition with 25 large-format paintings in his hometown of Linz in the summer of 2021, music is now being made again. From the art studio to the recording studio, on to the dance floor in the form of art and beats, Parov Stelar is an all-in-one king of art. He is currently working on a new album, which should see the light of day in March 2022. A first taste of it will be out in 2021 and the icing on the cake is a music documentary called Voodoo Sonic, which will also be released in 2021 and shows many new insights into the world of Parov Stelar.
Parov Stelar & Band played over 1000 live shows all around the world, e.g. sold out shows at PlayStation Theater in New York back to back, Alexandra Palace in London and Zenith in Paris. They played major festivals like Coachella, Glastonbury, Sziget, Lollapalooza, Pukkelpop, and many more. For the all new Venom Tour 2022, however, Parov Stelar has come up with something extraordinary and is - together with his band and crew - conceptualizing the biggest change in the Parov Stelar live show of the last 10 years with a completely new stage design and visual experience as well as many new songs, new arrangements, and a few surprises, all to be seen for the first time at the new tour in 2022.
Taking their name from the poet Friedrich Schiller, the project was originally formed as a duo by trance producers Christopher von Deylen and Mirko von Schlieffen. One would assume that releasing music that was essentially low-key Trance with spoken word poetry layered over the top of it wouldn't exactly be a recipe for success, but that was exactly what Schiller found when they released their debut single “Glockenspiel” the year that they formed. The single was a huge success in the native Germany, and as the 90's gave way to the 2000's, the duo found success all over Europe thanks to their esoteric sounds.
However, shortly after the release of the duo's second album “Weitreise”, Schlieffen and Deylen split amicably due to them wanting to move in different musical directions. Deylen kept the name and released the act's third album “Leben” in 2003, which brought the project even more popularity all over the world. Since then, Deylen has had one of the most eclectic and extensive lists of collaborators in modern electronic music, having worked with everyone from ex-Nightwish front-woman Tarja Turunen, Sarah Brightman and Colbie Caillat among many others. For such success to come to such an esoteric and ambitious artist is truly a good thing no matter what one's opinion on the music, and for that, Schiller comes highly recommended.
Parov Stelar is an amazing dj who knows how to put on an amazing show. He is very active with the audience and keeps them entertained throughout his set.
I had the chance to see him perform while I was attending a music festival. I was really excited to see another band that was performing, but Parov ended up being the highlight of the night for me.
He started his set with slow but thumping beats and it gradually grew in to a huge climax. It had everyone in the audience jumping up and down and dancing all over the place. It was nonstop with the beats. It was amazing.
Everyone in the audience fed off of the music and it was a nice pick me up after being at the festival all day.
If I ever had another chance to see him, I would jump all over it.
Schiller is from the musical point of view a genius, but at his live concerts he also gives you the combination of audio and visual experience which leaves a deep impression in your memory.
I love the "Klangwelten" concerts, they are at optically- and acoustically-perfect locations and you can enjoy Schiller's music in a laid back atmosphere.
Actually I'd say, if Schiller is coming to a venue close to you, buy tickets and go there! You will NEVER regret it!
