From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Martin Rössel, born 8 April 1959, is a Swedish musician and producer. Together with Lars Cleveman, he founded Sweden's first electronic underground group, Dom Dummaste.
He later ran a recording studio in Stockholm together with Marty Willson-Piper of The Church. His solo records include "Martin Rössel" (1987), "Tivolit" (1989), and "Resan..." (1990). He also collaborated to Marty Willson-Piper's solo records "Rhyme" (1989) and "Spirit Level" (1992), as well as The Church's "Sometime Anywhere" (1994). He then concentrated on production and advertisement business at his own company Krut Ljuddesign in Stockholm. However, he recently rejoined his old bandmate Lars Cleveman, with whom he recorded a new work called "Prayer of Love" (2004) under the name "Cleveman Rössel".
He also enjoyed recent notoriety by circulating in the world wide web the singalong tune "Bomb Iraq" as a protest against the war in Iraq. The song has been downloaded well over 500,000 times.
