Career
More recently, Weyzig is involved with Vaselyne, White Rose Transmission, and Stargazing Project. In January 2011, Weyzig founded Turmoil Music, a new music platform for Independent Artists. Weyzig started his music career in 1985 with Dutch electronic wave legend Clan of Xymox when they were signed with the English indie label 4AD, which released their eponymous debut album that same year.
The track 7th Time was picked up by John Peel, and led to the band recording two of the Peel Sessions at the British Broadcasting Corporation, in June and November 1985.
Weyzig played guitar and keyboards on the famous debut album, and performed with the band on stage as live guitarist and keyboard player until 1990. In 1995, Weyzig (vocals, guitar, editing/production) formed Dutch indie-wave band Born Foreign Bliss along with Remco Helbers (bass, Chapman Stick) and Willem Van Antwerpen (drums).
In 1996 Born Foreign Bliss released the debut single, "Arabia" on Nuclear Blast - Death Wish Office, a German label. The "Arabia" single became a club hit and made its way high into the German Alternative charts.
In 1997, the band released its first full length album "Flowing with the Flu," which also made the German Alternative charts.
In 1998, German Goth rock group Love Like Blood asked Weyzig to write a song for their ‘Snake Killer" album. This resulted in the track ‘Ylene," which became one of their favorites during Love Like Blood’s live performances later that year. As co-writer, band member, and producer, Weyzig and the band released Spiders in the Mind Web (Echozone, 2010) and the live album Spinning Webs at Night (Echozone, 2011).
In 2011, Weyzig founded Turmoil Music, a free Music Platform for Independent Artists.
Also in 2011, Weyzig and Remco Helbers formed Stargazing Project. That same year, Echozone released a digital version of their album ‘Stargazing" - a collection of songs inspired by mysteries such as conspiracies, alien abductions, unidentified flying object encounters, and other strange events.
Weyzig"s latest project is Vaselyne - a collaboration with Dutch singer Yvette Winkler, known for her contribution to Pieter Nooten"s latest album, ‘Here is Why’ (2010). Vaselyne"s first European Parliament ‘Earthbound’ was released in the spring of 2012, with the full album due for release in the Spring of 2013.
In 2012, Echozone re-released the first Born Foreign Bliss album, ‘Flowing with the Flu," a re-mastered version of the 1997 album plus extra, never before released remixes.
