Falco

Hip hop
Hip hopPopRock

Falco is a Hip hop and Pop act. Their catalogue also touches Rock. Their sound grew out of David Bowie, Klaus Nomi, Wolfram, Ganymed and Elvis Presley. Those roots explain a lot about how Falco arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Die Prinzen, Alphaville, Udo Jürgens, Münchener Freiheit and Marius Müller-Westernhagen, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Backstreet Boys, Laura Branigan, Edguy, Bloodhound Gang and Fler, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 29 connections around Falco, reaching back through David Bowie and forward to Backstreet Boys.
