Yogi Lang Frontman for Pink Floyd Influenced RPWL

RPWL was Originally Formed as a Pink Floyd Cover Band

1 hr 11 min / Published

Yogi Lang took his first steps in music as a keyboard player and singer in bands at school. His growing love of analogue synthesizers then turned his bedroom into a bubbling, swirling spaceship. At the end of the 1980s, he gave up his social work studies and switched to a school of audio engineering. Working in studios had already increasingly become his main occupation.

After successful studio years, it was time to go back to his roots: a band, writing songs together, performing live, all the things that made Lang choose the path of music in the first place.

RPWL was originally formed as a Pink Floyd cover band. The band's name is a combination of the first letters of the original four members' last names: Rissettio, Postl, Wallner, and Lang.

Their debut album God Has Failed in 2000 was so well received that they decided to continue and have done so to the present day.

Yogi and guitarist Kalle Wallner also built The Farm Studios, close to Munich airport, so that they could work on the band’s recordings and in 2010 founded their own record label, Gentle Art Of Music.

Working with other bands and artists in the studio is still part of Lang’s life: Subsignal, Blind Ego, Ray Wilson, to name just a few. In 2016, the band released a live album containing a full performance of Pink Floyd's The Man & The Journey.

Lang has released 2 solo albums: “No Decoder” in 2010 and his latest work “A Way Out of Here”.

Please welcome singer/songwriter/musician/producer and founding member of RPWL… YOGI LANG to Interviewing the Legends.
