For a few weeks now, we’ve been receiving a regular stream of stormy news from the dance dictator’s headquarters. But this is truly good news, as the release of “IMPERIVM”, a truly exceptional Nachtmahr album<\/strong>, is just around the corner. In our May\/June issue, we bombarded Thomas Rainer with many a question that kept us on the edge of our seats and found out more about his family ties to the fans – an unstoppable movement linked to them – and art as a true craft. <\/p>\n\n
