Philosophy
HI! I am Simon Thaur.
Many people might recognize me as the (male) founder of KitKatClub in Berlin (yes, there is a female founder too) and the producer of all these crazy porn stuff from Innovative-Productions.
I say it as it is. In the year 2007 I stopped my porn productions because my interests went strongly towards an intellectual direction and research about what life is all about. In the last 10 years I worked upon a system which is able to proove connections between planetary influences and the hormonal axis. During this time I managed to write down around 3000 pages material upon this matter which will be published soon.
During this time also an incredible pool of music got created together with Charly Bainsky in my private music studio which I never published.
Being aware that most of these songs are far too good to just keep them safe in the computer or listen to it myself I decided to do a few free music videos. It turned out very quickly that producing conventional music videos was far too boring for me in order to inspire me in doing such a thing. To keep up my interest I decided to keep the focus of my music videos again more pornografic.
In meantime many things changed anyway in the last 10 years through the internet. Almost everybody has already seen almost every style of music video as well as all the available porn stuff. Usually its mostly the same and very very little is new or original. So I decided to do a balancing act between art video and porn in a way that porn is just one of many dimensions in such a video. The actual main focus is creating a cool and multidimensional video and overcoming categoric borders in the sense of kinkyness and provocation.
After starting the first videos and diping again into „Far Out“-stuff it became quickly clear that for a free video streaming on youtube 18-area very soon all these ideas I had in my crazy mind went far beyond the sexual content limit which is allowed on such plaforms.
Therefore this circumstance made it necessary to do this site as a pay site even though it was not planned so in the beginning.
What I try to present on this page is a young, fresh, unconventional and multidimensional new concept of how to mix up porn, poetry, music, humour, abstract intellectuality and other dimensions in a complete unique way which so far is unreached until now and without competition.
If you feel bored of the usual standards and specified categories as myself and search for a new and unconventional spectrum of music as well as visual content, I am sure, you will find lots of little jewels on this page.
Free your mind and enjoy! I wish a lot of fun and inspiration!
Portrait
Music determined my life since my childhood days. Some family members that resided in the countryside of Tirol have been full time magnitudes in traditional music; my grandfather was one of the last harp makers in Austria. At the tender age of nine I mastered my first intrument, the mandolin. Guitar, Piano and drums were destined to follow. In the course of adolescence, my taste changed to the pop and rock music of the seventies.
Aged 16, I established contacts to the band Embryo and Schneeball-Records, Germanys first independent label, for which I organised various concerts in some small towns. The arts and leisure centre ‚UmmiGummi‘ in Lienz was a direct result of my promotional activities back then.
As I turned around 17, I left Austria to tour with my jazzrock combo ‚Zwitschermaschine‘ as a drummer. As the group disbanded, I went on a folkloristic excursion, discovered my own voice and started to work on a publication for several months that, in the end, never got realized.
Because the hedonistic element dominated my life, while I was busy cruising around the world for the next couple of years, the importance of music dropped into the back. Being able to play guitar on the streets allowed me to survive in poor times more than once (in Greece and Japan, among others). Punk and New Wave never got hold of me, the first contact with new music happened around 1985 during some EBM and/or House parties in Goa while I was heavily tripping on acid.
A personality crisis at the age of 30 got me to settle back to Germany. 1991 I purchased an Atari ST, Steinberg’s Cubase and a Yamaha SY-77 to compose some music on my own.
1994 my former girlfriend and me established the fetish oriented venue ‚KitKatClub‘ in Berlin that got a reputation beyond borders. During the nineties, it was, apart from the sexual component (the KitkatClub was the first discoteque that allowed you to have sex in public), mainly the melodic and trancey style of music (which its followers refer to as the ‚Kitty Sound‘) that got the club its approval of popularity. In the last couple of years, the KitKatClub has opened itself to new musical influences ranging from electro to full on (check kitkatclub.de).
The success of the KitKatClub has further allowed me to extend my sound studio where, in total, several hours of music have been composed and programmed to midi that partly went onto the green album. Then a break took place in my musical work because of the extension of the club, several relocations and the launch of the gonzo porn label ‚Subway Innovative ProdActions‘ that required my full attention.
Since November 2002 I work alongside with Charly Bainsky. He supports me as a audio and sound engineer, to compile thee material that has been conceived. Originally, I started to rework my former MIDI creations, with the goal to get some perfection of them, with updated sounds.
Because I was acting like a rockstar in one of my porn movies, I thought that this rockstar requires a earworm – a hit. So I produced and sang ‚Ballad of a dying man‘ (check: The green album). This composition that I made during my later adolescence were exclusive for that film. In the following period, one could have enjoyed my voice again and discover new tonations. I added my vocals to all of my previously recorded instrumentals and reworked some of the songs. Such tracks had been chanting along during my days as a street musician.
Concurrently, Charly Bainsky, who had a background as a sound engineer working for bands and live events, got into club music and started to create some basic grooves for me to play around and arrange with. This had the advantage to put my attitude of ’not wanting to be pigeonholed‘ on a solid and appealing foundation.

Opinions from others
Simon Thaur has always been a music lover. He originates from an austrian family of musicians, left home at the age of 17 and went on a 14 year-long journey around the globe, never having a residency, that took him to London, Italy, Greece, Israel and India. As he came back to Europe, he met his female companion Kirsten with whom he founded both the KitKatClub in Berlin and the movie production company Subway Innovative ProdActions. The KitKatClub recently celebrated its 12 th anniversary, still proving its unique status in Berlins wild club territory, beeing known as a meeting place for sexually open minded people and having a reputation to be europes or probably the worlds most ecstatic venue. With Subway Innovative, Thaur created 200 pornographic masterpieces that are considered landmarks of european porn history, often breaking the genres‘ boundaries. Since 2003, Thaur had been on the lookout for a new challenge, devoting himself to his love of music by the construction of the KitkatStudios and an incomparable sound that has never been heard before. The principles of his movies also apply to his music: breaking the limits, not only by opening pigeonholes but mixing them up to develop his very own style. His sound is a fusion of guitar riffs, techno/trance-like patterns from all genres of electronic music topped with an outstanding vocal that would easily be identified out of 1000 voices.
Acting out on different roles and incarnations, he gives you the dominator or he would sometimes appear in the guise of the poet, the tempting magician or the ironic genius. He could either be your prosecutor or the blessed and gifted entertainer that casts a spell over you, takes you to his world and just won’t let you go.
