No. Here, maybe I should of sent this to the list earlier, but I wrote to
Musik Aus Strom earlier this year & they emailed back about the rpms:

Subject: your letter
hi marc,
how are you doing??
...honestly your letter was the coolest we ever got!
it was really funny to read that you don?t know on what rpm our records
should be played at, cause a lot of other people don?t know that as
well! it was our intension to confuse our consumers a little bit. we
absolutely don?t care on which speed you play our records, but if you
are not sure if the track should be faster or slower it?s mostly faster,
as we programmed most of our breakbeatlike rhythmns on ca. 140-160bpm.
(the freeform e.p. is on 33rpm, the andr? estermann on 45rpm)
...by the way which records from us have you got??..where from??
check out our latest stuff which should be distributed in america soon:
compost045 :funkstoerung.sonderdienste e.p.
chocalate ind. 03 :funkstoerung.postart e.p. (that?s a label from
miami...from the former schematic founder)
wu-tang clan "reunited"-:funkstoerung.remix
bjoerk "all is full of love"-:funkstoerung.remix
finitribe "mind my make up"-:funkstoerung.remix...a few other remixes to
come
...new mas-stuff will follow soon!
take care
michael fakesch and chris de luca
[end of forward]
That doesn't make the Funkstorungs & Michael Fakeschs totally clear, but,
checking the bpms, it seems to me that they are all 45.
