Electronic trio “Jeanette und das Land Z was founded by Kirsten Klemm,Matthias Schuster and Jan T.Krahn . At home a few tracks were recorded and in spring 1981 the first 7” “poupee de cire,,,,” a France Gall cover version, was released by Phonogram. The B-side was a strange soundtrack version of “Raumpatrouille”, til today a German cult science fiction television series. After a series of interviews, great reviews and a radio session in Paris, the band returned to Hamburg to record their first album at Phonogram studios.At that point Jürgen Weiss joined the band to play drums on a few tracks. But after finishing the album, the band didn t come to an agreement with Phonogram, so the band took over the whole Konkurrenz label to start a new and totally independent company. Inspired by an old song of a german chansonette hildegard Knef, the band manifested their independent status by changing the name to “BAL PARE”.
