now for a bit of fun...

thusfar the creel pones have all been academically-inclined in some way. by contrast, here’s a repro of a very bizarre one-off private-press lp released in 1981 by one-time tangerine dream/kluster associate conrad schnitzler and given only to friends and family. the b-side is pretty odd, even for schnitzler, with its pitched up vocals & arbitrary lo-fi synth drippings; but the real prize is the a-side featuring his teenage son gregor on electric bass and completely fried vocals (in english no less) as run through conrad’s massive modular synth rig.

these are actual “songs”, most 3-6 minutes in length, usually a single vamp that gets coated with all sorts of nonsense-ranting from gregor, considerably more damaged than any willfully bereft “electrocash™” vocal cadence (see: miss kittin, etc...), only actually damaged. as in, “this is the best i can do”. gregor’s vocal refrains are often repetitive to the point of nausea (see: “countdown... to the underground...” repeated ad infinitum), his social commentary so far off the mark (“white people... black people... they like you... they hate you!”) it pretty much has to be heard to be believed...

most people i’ve played this for have agreed that this is either the best record ever made or one of the worst (always a fine line.) personally i hear all of the promise of the art-damaged d.i.y. home-recorded electronic punk revival that was lost as soon as “liquid sky” became the benchmark (and not suicide, the primitive calculators, the storm bugs, attack under attack, etc...) regardless of your taste, your jaw will be wide open for the duration, and certainly an eye-opener for those already familiar with schnitzler’s canon...

important press release...

conrad schnitzler is a genuine legend in the krautrock and electronic music worlds. schnitzler studied under joseph beuys before joining an early tangerine dream. their first album electronic meditation shows a band highly influenced by schnitzler's unique, singular approach. schnitzler left tangerine dream to form kluster with friends dieter moebius and hans joachim roedelius. when schnitzler left kluster they changed their name to cluster eventually merging with michael rother (of neu!) to form harmonia, a group who brian eno once called the most important rock group on the planet. schnitzler also founded eruption in 1970 along with klaus schulze, manuel gottsching (ash ra tempel), and klaus freudigmann.

the piano is certainly an instrument with which conrad schnitzler is not often associated. however, his compositions on klavierhelm exhibit his highly expressive and free approach to the piano. calling to mind erik satie and john cage, cecil taylor and even carl stalling.

limited edition of 1000. cover design by conrad schnitzler.

february 2009 release ; believe this is the first issue of this particular entrant to the “colored” series of lps by schnitzler (“rot” , “gelb” , “grun” , “schwartz”) - recorded in 1974 & 1975 ...

even though it’s only a year/two after “rot” (my personal favorite) this is nowhere near as through-and-through soul-destroying ; the former’s finely-misted splay of ring-modulated sound is replaced by a much cleaner array of straight-rhythm pulse-width synth-lines and a general atonal malaise that’s just not as compelling ...

still ; vintage schnitzler is vintage schnitzler ... we’ll take what we can get !!!

2003 release ; this is... by far... the most interesting record-object i’ve been able to stock via mms thusfar (buddha machine :: ha!) ... what ships as two cds and a three-inch cd-rom inside a resealable plastic display-bag (left) in fact opens up to be an inflatable möbius-strip / objét d’art that you assemble and inflate yourself (with the included red straw no less), then display prominently on your mantlepiece ... voila ::

on top of all that, the two audio-discs are rife with excellent, exclusive material from a who’s who of the international sound-art scene ... plus the 3” cd-rom explains the project in more detail and contains artist bios & links & whatnot ... just plain amazing ... no collection should be without !!!
