ADRIAN IOWA von BLANCK
Adrian Iowa is one of the most innovative, interesting and
diverse musicians/artists of our time ...
He is a musician, guitarist, composer, arranger, producer,
founder of the band PROTOTYP, web- and sound designer, audio
engineer, founder and owner of the music production company
PROTOTYP Music Entertainment, Audio/Video & Multimedia
Productions and founder of his organization Messengers Of
Art/We Are United! W.A.U.! He takes on commissioned
composites and, importantly for him, he is his own manager. In
addition, Adrian Iowa has been an "Independent" for decades, an independent musician who is against record contracts
with the so-called "Major Labels". Everything related to him and his music is produced independently in his home studio
in Hechingen. Adrian's musical and artistic experimentation is so great that he doesn't fit into any pigeonhole. His music
sometimes reminds of Pink Floyd or Mike Oldfield, incorporates prog or classical elements, but in the end it always
remains the "PROTOTYP sound", (or as he affectionately calls it "prototypmusic") his musical fingerprint.

In 1981 Adrian Iowa and three friends founded the band PROTOTYP. And
"prototyp" became program for the band. At every concert the four
musicians presented new compositions, there were no repetitions! Who has
seen and heard this band once, knows from now on how and why they
manage to inspire the masses at the first go! The melodies are catchy, the
lyrics are memorable. What comes out is merciless entertainment full of
surprises and because they never tire of proving their qualities live, their
performance is clearly a must see!!! The founder of the band is Adrian Iowa,
he is the composer and lyricist of this band. (Some of his poems have
appeared in magazines). Striking about this
ABOUT
ABOUT ADRIAN IOWA AND HIS BAND PROTOTYP
Band was that over 6 years (1981-1987) was dispensed with the bass guitar.
But this was compensated by the development of their own guitar tuning
and gave the prototype sound, the somewhat different... For years, only
instrumentals were played, although finished lyrics were available.... Adrian
Iowa wanted to draw the attention of the audience to the specially tuned
guitar. Adrian Iowa and his band , which is called PROTOTYP and is defined
somewhere between production team, studio musicians, family and band,
has added new fellow musicians to start this project, a rock opera, or what
he himself affectionately calls "a musical event of a special kind", called THE
SNOW STAR.

A prototype often serves as a preparation for a
serial production, but it can also be planned as
a unique piece, which is only intended to
illustrate a certain concept...
A prototype is an original type, form or case of
something that serves as a typical example, basis
or standard for other things of the same
category.
The word is based on the Greek πρωτότυπον
(prototypon)....
"True to my motto: "NOT BETTER THAN THE OTHERS - JUST OTHER THAN THE BEST - So, B
OriGinaL, don't ImiTate!" I want to bring something fresh to the music landscape and not imitate
something that has already had success. Yes, I know, that's what the industry likes to do: rather
have something known restaged than dare to do something new. As a creative musician it is not in
my sense to clone "Sissis", "Tarzans", "HänselundGretels", "Abbamamias" and to present to the
audience what has already been presented umpteen times. Others have done that before, and
that's a good thing. Music is a creative process as well as a constant interaction between artist and
audience. Besides, music lives on emotions. There is no need to copy what has already been
successful. The new, the unfamiliar has to come out. I have that."
