Biography

Founder and originator of the band PROTOTYP is Adrian Iowa, he is composer and copywriter of the band, (Some of his poems appeared in magazines). Remarkable about the band was, that for 6 years(during 1981-1987), they renounced the bass guitar. However, this was compensated through the development of an individual guitar tuning and gave the Prototyp sound something really unique.... although lyrics existed only instrumental songs were played for years... Adrian Iowa wanted to draw the audiences attention to the special tuned guitar of his.

In 1981 Adrian Iowa founded the band PROTOTYP and "prototyp" became program for the band. With every concert, the four musicians presented new compositions, there were no repetitions! Born in Temeschburg he began his musical career with his own band PROTOTYP and pleased his fans with melodious Artrock songs, selective melodies and stirring rhythms. Later he moved to Hechingen/ Germany,. Whoever saw and listened to this band before, knows why they succeed in filling the masses with enthusiasm straight away! The melodies go into the ear, the lyrics leave an imprint. The end product is merciless Entertainment, full of surprises and because they don't become tired, they show their qualities live on stage to proof it - the performance on stage is a must.

PROTOTYP ‘DEMO+DVD’ (INDEPENDENT)

The German band PROTOTYP consists of a bunch of professional musicians whom all have been active for a long time now. This can also be heard very clearly on the 3 songs counting demo and DVD sent to me. Musically it is a mix 70s Classic Rock, Sympho and 80s AOR, resulting in a sound that mixes the best of JOURNEY, ASIA and THIN LIZZY. “I’ve had enough” happens to be a catchy 80s melodic rocker with good arrangements and nice melodies, while the other songs on the demo CD show the classic 70s melodic guitarsound of the band. Closing track “1959” has some beautiful melodies and is a nice STYX/MAGNUMish piece. This band should be able to release a sensational full-length CD, but in the meantime this demo and short DVD features some of the band’s material of which the fantastic uptempo Melodic Pomprocker “Children of the streets” is a song that hopefully is recorded for official CD release soon, because this is classic MAGNUM meets HEEP!
