Siegman Fricke and Dieter Mauson were active and very prolific during the 90s, they are back together as DSIP and here there is their official blog.

Enjoy the sublime electronic hypnotic music by this astonishing duo.

v.a.-The X-Mas-Compilation (Ebus Music-EM024+025-Germany-1992-2xC63 in a videobox with 28-pages booklet)

After posting few tapes by the legendary Ebus Music I got back in touch with Carsten Olbrich,the mastermind of this label, I was planning to transfer this double compilation to my pc when he told me that he already had it as digital format,so this is his rip, I asked him to write an introduction to include in this post,  after all, who better than him could write an intro for this great sampler???

Carsten is still very active and you can check his official webpage please go here.

He also plays in a cool radio each 1st Tuesday of every month(8pm to 10pm)please go here to listen to his show, and here the link for his playlists.

So I finish now and leave you all to his nice and detailed introduction.
Big thanx Carsten for passing me this compilation already in digital format and your great remembrances.Enjoy it!

"I cannot remember my first impulse to organize a "X-Mas Compilation". After a few years of EBUS Music this was not the first compilation release, and so I created a very simple flyer and asked also some friends from the tapescene for contributions. The first deadline (end of Novemver 1991) was much too close to X-Mas. Some mastertapes reached me in the mid of December, and I also ran a recall for artwork. At least the X-Mas Compilation was planned to be released one year later in December 1992. Well, it finally came out at Easter 1993, which was a kind of dada-joke to me, even if some people found it strange to listen to Christmas music in April ;-)

 

Didi was a christian ex-junkie without confession, who later got some fame with his S/M EBM project "Call" (first album "Domina")
L'Edarps A Moth was a good friend from Frankfurt, a very active musician for the tape-underground. He was also the editor of the "Independent-Kontakter" which came out at his "Büro für Akute Planung". His two tracks were recorded at X-Mas 1989 and in 1990.
Richard Youngs was a new artist from England to me. He already had a large discography and sent his 12"-vinyl-LP "Advent" as present together with his master tape. He wrote a detailed description of his traditional Christmas with his dad, which I printed in the booklet.

Schmertz der Welten is my own project. I altered the lyric of the German X-Mas-song "Alle Jahre Wieder" into something ironic about violence against children, and recorded to the original melody my very own version (even if the vocals level is to low...). The other track "Weihnachtsmann um Mitternacht" is still exclusive until today like many other contributions.

Some more new contacts to me were The Tall Bald Grandfathers, Xerpphyte, Dee Jay Emm (who sent much more artwork than i could use), Majorana, Raimondo Del Prete, SHA 261 and Chris Wind.
Chris Wind is a feminist writer, actress and musician from Canada. I took three short pieces from her "Christmas Album". After she received her free copy, she replied with a thankful postcard, but wrote, that she didn't liked any of the other tracks ;-)
Also Frak from the Swedish label Börft Records contributed an exclusive track.
Matthias Schöller was a musician from the local band "Vague Venture". He also released a whole tape ("The Path") on EBUS Music.

Steve Hartwell from Peeved Records, England sent tracks from "Deaf Goes East" and from his better-known project "Dead Goldfish Ensemble".

Also  Eiaculazione Amusicale came on board. We had a little misunderstanding with the artwork of his booklet-page. In this digitalized version for this Blog you will find the exchanged page.
My friends Haiko Herden ("The Evasion On Stake") and Alexander Pohle ("Beton Tapes" sent their exclusive X-Mas Medley, which should only be released under a different artist name "Band Aids".

"Doves Under Chairwalk" and "Cult Goes Culture" were both projects of Thomas Deppermann who ran the tapelabel "Culture Tapes"

B.O.P. is a shortcut for "Base Of Pyramid". The two persons behind (Tom Pyramid and Ms McGuire) were a couple with whom i and the femalse drummer Anette Bum Betz formaly made music as "Top Of Pyramid".
"Etat Des Stocks" war Patrick Perent from the Belgian label "Red Neon Tapes"

"Telepherique" were Danijela Jochim, Rene Jochim and Klaus Jochim. Klaus was also my contact-person for the label "Drahtfunk Produkt".

"Klimperei" is a well-known project of Christophe Petchanaz. He created a totally unique version of "Stille Nacht" and dedicated the title to me.

"D.M.A.D.T." was a a project of Carsten Vollmer from the label "Cat Killer" with an exclusive track recorded live on 9 Oct 1991.

"Knut Baltz Formation" existed even in the GDR. Florian Merkel sent four b/w photos from 1989 and 1990 which I used for the booklet.

Raimondo Del Prete with his child sent a quite long "Christmas Pudding" from which I choose a short extract. At least I was a bit sad for them, that my choice was that short.
SHA 261 wrote in a personal letter to me, that the French word "Noel" comes from the meaning "No Hell".

The X-Mas Compilation was released in a limited edition of 100 copies." 

 

v.a.-The CRAZY SIDE OF IRRE TAPES-(c60-Irre Tapes/Ebu`s Music-Germany-1990)

 Irre Tapes was a German label run by Matthias Lang which evolved out of the IRRE Fanzine he published regularly during the early 1980's covering New Wave, Post Punk and the German Underground.
With his 3rd Tape Compilation Ein Herz In Not he started IRRE Tapes which was mainly active in the late 80s/early 90s and released material by the likes of Brume, Maeror Tri and City Of Worms and loads of lesser known and stylistic different artists (Unpleasant Surprise, Fuckedtones, The, Magic Moments At Twilight Time, Doc Wör Mirran) covering the whole range of the Independent Underground from Experimental Electronica to Guitar Pop.
In true DIY spirit he supported the international network of small labels and fanzines through editing the free IRRE Newsletter to spread infos and contacts and writing occasionally reviews for various publications. Most of his Compilations should be seen as an attempt to promote lesser known artists and labels. Without doubt he was one of the driving forces of the German Tape Scene.
He finally called the label days quits in 1994/1995 but soon re-appeared as collaborating and networking artist Mr. Moto (2).(from discogs)
It seems that this compilation was compiled and released by Carsten Olbrich on his own label Ebu`s music,still active now-days,here his webpage.
Great compilation of crazy electronics...

v.a.-ONE TWO THREE FOUR,vol I(Ebu`s Music-c60-Germany-1991)+v.a.-ONE TWO THREE FOUR,vol II(EBU`s music-c60-Germany-1992)

4 ways split tapes those compilations assembled by Carsten Olbrich, mastermind of the tape label Ebu`s Music.

I spoke already about him on this blog, here that post.

The vol 1 of this tapes brings us Unpleasant Surprise, Frak, M.Nomized and Vulture Culture. The vol 2 instead has Treye, D as Frohlique Wohnzimmer Der Asthetische Einzelkampfer and The Dead Goldfish Ensemble.

Both tapes came in a Cr02 tape and have the color paper cover with addresses of the bands and song titles.

The music is very different going from some form of folk to some weird electro dance stuff and beyond.

Very well done Carsten: >

KING EBU-instrumentals(c30-Ebu`s music-Germany-1990)

Another very old tape!!This one came out on Ebu`s music ,little cassette label active in the 90s in Germany,managed by Carsten Olbrich,who is also the artist beyond this music.
Carsten used all those other names

2000-the-GmbH, Always Welcome, Carsten Olbrich, Die Gebosenen Düchsen, Die Geile Sonne, Die Wichtelmänner, Herr Ebu, Mr. Ebu, Mr. Welten, Schmertz Der Welten, Wild Roses

as aliases for other projects.

This tape is a kind of electro pop made with a synth and a drum machine and then remixed with an old fostex-a 4 tracks recorder very well known by  artists of this era,experimenting electronic music.

Only for the lovers of mellow and melodic electronic experiments with analog instruments.
