Real name: Pierre Michael Schilling

German pop singer, born on January 28, 1956. While numerous new wave artists in the early '80s tried to imitate David Bowie, Peter Schilling went a step further.

In 1989, Schilling collaborated with Enigma's Michael Crétu on the track "Different Story (World of Lust and Crime)," an admirable attempt at updating his sound and trying to return to the American charts. "Major Tom" was given a techno sheen in 1994, and the reworked song was welcomed in the clubs. A year later, Schilling formed the Space Pilots with Catyana Schilling, J. Feifel, and P. Magnet, recording Trip to Orion.
