    Conny Plank Conny Plank: The Potential Of Noise

    Wienerworld

    Born in Germany, Conny Plank was one of the most innovative sound experimentalists, producing recordings that revolutionized music that still is as valid as ever. In the 70s and 80s, artists such as Kraftwerk, David Bowie, Brian Eno, Gianna Nannini, Ultravox and the Eurythmics queued to record in Conny Plank’s studio, a farmhouse near Cologne.

    Producer, sound engineer and musician, Plank covered a wide range of genres
    including progressive, avant-garde, electronic music and krautrock. He passed away at just 47, leaving behind a wife, actress Christa Fast and a 13-year-old-son, Stephan.

    Now, 20 years on, Stephan sets out to trace his father’s footsteps, the film
    taking a journey through music history as well as around the world, to give an
    unusually intimate and emotional view of the artists, their work with Conny
    Plank and the massive musical legacy he left behind.
