upon recently taking notice of the new cover of the ACCIDENT IN PARADISE album
by the technogod of frankfurt- a.k.a. SVEN VATH, i spent much time pondering
the existence of ralph hildenbuettal (is that how you spell his name?).
on most of the projects released by sven, as SVEN VATH or barbarella, or what-
ever, the production credit is usually given to sven and ralph. and yet we
never see ralph. all the press is given to sven, pictures in wacky outfits being
the character that he is and doing it so well.
i think ralph is getting screwed, though. i had heard... i think i read it some-
where, that ralph was classically trained and did most of the composition of
their work. if this is true, then it really sucks that he gets no attention
paid to him.
any comments or insight? i would love to get to the bottom of the ralph
mystery... why he remains so obscure when music which he creates (at least in
part) gets so much attention.
