omni117 bruce haack : haackula bruce haack's "haackula" is the record you've dreamt of and the stuff of nightmares. deemed to be too dark and too offensive for release when it was recorded in 1978 it has languished unheard in the vault ever since. with its premiere release here it will soon be revered as a lost classic of outsider electronica. haack's anger with a society he sees as too straight and too claustrophobic is palpable as he hisses and cusses his way over astoundingly elastic electro backings. already respected as one of the pioneers of twentieth century electronic music haackula strikes out on this disc into dark, yet playful territory where few have gone before. imagine a very, very bummed out kraftwerk scowling as they play childlike melodies and sing under their breath of fear and abandonment. one listen to haackula's "blow job" is sure to change the way you view electronic music forever. as well as the full haackula album for the first time this release also features haack's extraordinary 1982 collaboration with russell simmons (def jam/public enemy/beastie boys) party machine and the incredible 32 minute (!) 1979 soundscape composition icarus. all tracks make their first official release here and are lovingly remastered from the original tapes. often bootleged, (incomplete with an incorrect tracklist and much inferior sound quality may we add!) the dark jewel that is haackula now sees the light of day in this deluxe premiere edition.

omni110 bruce haack the electric lucifer (remastered with extra tracks) bruce haack's "the electric lucifer" is rightly considered one of the masterworks of 20th century electronic music. originally recorded in 1968 and 1969 (and released in 1970) it is an album both unique in conception and superb in realization. an eminently listenable work where pop-psychedelia and moog/musique-concrete sounds coalesce around haack's central metaphysical concept of "powerlove", a force so powerful that it could end war and unify humankind. acclaimed upon its original release (one of rolling stone's favourite albums of 1970 amongst many citations) yet unavailable for over three decades, "the electric lucifer" is presented here for the first time on cd ! remastered and restored from the original master tapes recently discovered in the columbia vault (and featuring two previously unreleased bonus tracks), with hitherto unpublished photos from the original recording sessions and exclusive liner notes and recollections. "the electric lucifer" is your gateway to the profound yet playful universe of bruce haack, a "far-out" place where flower-power and inner-space electronics collide!
