Producer, songwriter and artist Veronika J. Koenig – known by her stage name FARCE – remains unimpressed with genre restrictions and finds her niche in anything that is heavy in bass and intense in emotion. Her oeuvre spans not only her solo works, but also continuous collaborations with likeminded artists like techno pop maven Fauna and, most recently, Wolfgang Moestl of Mile Me Deaf. Reminiscent of acts like Robyn, LCD Soundsystem and Charli XCX, FARCE continues to produce an intoxicating mix of rather violent experimental ideas finding a home in theatrical flamboyant Pop music.

Around two years after a first EP with an impossible name (‘'Ich sehe im vorbeifahrenden Auto den Unfall mitvorbeifahren in Zeitlupe und rueckwaerts’‘, Meta Matter, 2017) Veronika J. Koenig released her more aptly titled debut album. HEAVY LISTENING shamelessly requests the listener’s full attention as only few pop records can. Never losing that nag for a catchy riff or line, the record finds Koenig in much more tangible spheres than on her first EP. Designed as a conceptual journey from start to finish, it declares war on the much discussed death of the album and shows just how far a full, intentional body of work can go.

Her new EP ‘'Trauma Bounce’‘ arrives in late June of 2020, spearheaded by the fun, sexy, sad ’‘Subway Surfer’‘ – out now.
