These were followed by renewed touring activity in 2016. Ģ015 saw the release of Night Terrors and its accompanying EPs, Glasmensch and Monoton. Twenty years after their debut album Orange Sector released the maxi-EP, "Der Maschinist", as a lead-in to their tenth studio album Vorwärts Nach Weit. In 2010, the band dual-released Krieg & Frieden on both Infacted and on Metropolis Records in the United States, their first release on that label. Under the Infacted banner the band released a stream of new studio albums: Bassprodukt (2006), Profound (2007), and Mindfuck (2009). This led to the compilation release Here We Are and a regenerated Orange Sector under the Infacted label. In 2004, Torben Schmidt of Lights of Euphoria and founder of Infacted Recordings contacted Felker with interest in releasing a compendium of early Orange Sector work. By the end of the nineties, Bodewell ceased activities as Orange Sector. The style of these albums differed from the initial, EBM heavy output during Felker's involvement and turned away some fans of the earlier work. Orange Sector released several more albums as a solo venture of Bodewell's: Love It! which was released by Synthetic Symfony, and Scars of Love and Masquerade which were released on Zoth Ommog. Studio, which was a production nexus for many EBM bands in the early 1990s.īy 1997, Felker left the band to attend to personal and professional affairs, leaving Bodewell to continue the project alone. Both were produced by André Schmechta (aka Sevren Ni-Arb) of X Marks the Pedwalk in his T.G.I.F. Over the next two years, the band released two albums on Zoth Ommog: Faith in 1993 and Flashback in 1994. Zoth Ommog label head, Andreas Tomalla (aka Talla 2XLC), liked the demo and offered a record deal to Bodewell and Felker. Influenced by fellow German acts DAF and Extrabreit, as well as EBM stalwarts Nitzer Ebb, the pair produced a demo tape as Orange Sector - entitled The War Comes Home - and sent it to the German electronic music label Zoth Ommog. The pair discovered that they had similar tastes in music and decided to work together in their musical efforts. Martin Bodewell and Lars Felker met in 1992 at an underground club named "Index" in Hannover, Germany.
