[edit] History
Haujobb was formed in 1993 by Daniel Myer, Dejan Samardzic, and Björn Junemann. They were soon signed to Off-beat Records, and began distributing their music in North America via Pendragon Records. 1995 saw the departure of band mate Björn, and the lineup has consisted of Daniel and Dejan ever since. After Metropolis Records acquired Pendragon, the two musicians have been able to spread their music to a larger fanbase in North America, and have remained continuously popular in the Europe electronic body music scene.
Today, both Daniel Myer and Dejan Samardzic record music under the name Haujobb, and Myer has several other projects of his own, including Architect, Clear Vision and Newt. Myer, along with Claire Voyant's Victoria Lloyd, form HMB.
