Kontrust - Time To Tango

Kontrust is a up and coming band from Austria. Bomba is the name of the song that caused their breakthrough in The Netherlands, after hearing it on the radio for the first time, I searched for their music, finding their album "Time To Tango", which i've been listening to every day since discovering it.

According to the band, they are surprised about the number of people in The Netherlands that respond to Bomba. A quote from their homepage:

VAN BOMBA!!!


Gesundheit!
Die Niederlande haben sich schwer mit dem KONTRUST-Virus infiziert: der staatliche Radiosender 3FM hat einen Narren an TIME TO TANGO gefressen und verstrahlt die gesamten Niederlande munter mit BOMBA und anderen Tango-Hits in High Rotation!!

Ein kurzer Blick auf unsere heiss laufenden YouTube- und Twitter-Channels motiviert zum Besuch des nächsten Holländischkurses auf der VHS Ihrer Wahl.
Damit aber nicht genug, am Dienstagabend gab es auf diesem Sender ein ausführliches Interview samt Verlosung dreier Alben zu hören - and there is more to come...

Doch auch in der heimischen Medienlandschaft gibt es neues Echo auf unser kleines Alpenmärchen: die vom freien Fernsehsender OKTO übertragene Mulatschag-Show wird am Freitag den 5.2. das BOMBA-Video in die österreichischen Haushalte und via Livestream ins WWW einspeisen - und am Freitag den 19.2. gibt es dann die ganze Ladung KONTRUST samt Interview und Videos!
You better believe it: "Mulatschag - die einzige TV-Show, die Sie wirklich brauchen"

BOMBA IN DEN CHARTS!!!


VAN TASTISCH - KONTRUST goes completely Orange: BOMBA enterte die niederländischen Single-Charts und eroberte vom Fleck weg Platz 76!

Damit aber nicht genug, BOMBA ist in Holland nämlich auch der am öftesten downgeloadete Rocksong, d.h.: Platz 1 auf itunes.nl!!!
Join our big party and visit our Twitter- and YouTube-channel: dort ist Holländisch Trumpf!

 

English Translations:

On the 2nd of February of 2010:

The Netherlands has been infected with the KONTRUST virus. Dutch national radio station 3FM went crazy over Bomba, giving this, and other tracks from the "Time To Tango" album a big boost into the Dutch charts.

On the 6th of February of 2010:

Insane, KOTRUST has got the Orange fever after Bomba storms The Dutch charts, entering in position 76, but that's not all: BOMBA is currently the number one downloaded rock song on the Dutch iTunes. On the BOMBA YouTube video, the language most used in comments is now Dutch.

The video for "Bomba" might have something to do with the "virality" of the song. The band members are dressed up like they star in a cheap Austrian porno movie from the eighties. Their demure act poses a nice contrast to the energetic music, giving it a comedial effect.
