Karlophone formed from music and recording experiments started in [[1996]] by Karl Koch. Originally inspired by a combo of the sample and sound collage work of early '90s hip-hop and the newfound affordability of samplers and musical gear, an attempt was started to make songs out of a blend of samples and self-recorded music. | Karlophone formed from music and recording experiments started in [[1996]] by Karl Koch.
