AUStere!Funktion engineering service subversively operating from the neo-laboratory of discombobulated grooves.
Rejecting the lyrical and musical excesses of rock music, AUS!Funkt combines the groove of electronic music with the subversive aggression of post-punk. The lyrics, spoken and sung, provoke the mind with their realism and repetition. Electronic beats seduce the body into movement, freeing it from its torpor. On top, the guitar spurts out clouds of noise, while the bass supplies the melody. AUS!Funkt assaults the senses and uneases the mind while you dance to its unsettling disco beats.

AUS!Funkt  could be considered post-punk, but in a really broad sense - post-punk influenced punk, disco, electronica, funk, rock'n'roll, garage rock, dub, blues and whatever is stripped down, raw, unrefined and mentally intriguing. AUS!Funkt  follows the aesthetic of simplicity, repetitiveness and minimalism with an unsettling but curious undertone.

Based in Seattle, they bring a level of cutting artistry to the scene with intricate instrumentation, emotionally charged lyrics, and attention grabbing melodies. 

Tin Foil Top Hat is the brainchild of veteran songwriter and classically trained guitar player, Paul Abner. They are fortified on vocals by Amber Rae. Rounding out the lineup are drummer, Pat Murphey, Gary Boon on harp, and bassist, Eddy Fey, who escaped the deep south and found home in Seattle.
