The 12 Commandments of music business in one film. The secret of success, the purpose of music awards, the whole truth about recording contracts and nine other monstrosities. WELCOME TO THE MACHINE is not just a rockumentary, but also uncovers the whole truth! Not always dead serious, but most definitely pitiless – after all it’s just about this one big question: Is there one right way to Fame?
"From star sopranist Natalia Ushakova to former Modern Talking singer Thomas Anders, from Cypress Hill and One Republic & MTV legend Ray Cokes to the rockers from Nazareth, more than 100 artists let us be part of their – not always pleasant – experiences. (…) Out of their own experiences they explain why it worked out or why, according to them, it can also not work out." (Andreas Steinkogler)
