Archive material and source history

Tele was a German new wave band that formed in 1981, led by vocalist Sascha Schmitz. Their sound leaned on synthesizers and atmospheric keyboards, with Gernot Kretschmer handling those parts and Jochen Ebeling on bass. They released their self-titled debut album in 1982.

Their most recognizable song is probably "Die Nacht Ist Jung," which became something of a nightlife anthem. Other tracks like "Foto" and "Cecile (Ich Nenn Dich Sissi)" show their mix of synth-driven arrangements and Schmitz's distinctive vocal delivery.

They followed up with albums like "Ich Bin Ein Mann" in 1984 and "Die Nacht Ist Die Zeit" in 1986, continuing in that vein of dark, keyboard-heavy new wave.
