Dear World and Austria,
the Golden Pudel Klub is not only an in and famous music club in Hamburg
but also the field where Pudel Produkte go harvest its crop of crap. Not
for nothing are all the windows of the Pudel Klub barricaded by
impervious planks. Besides a ventilation as bad as possible the goal is
to negate the day and keep the guests in the dark about many things,
e.g. cleanliness. The only thing that's blond in the murky discotheque
at Hamburgs St.Pauli Hafenstrasse is the Augustiner lager in the fridge
at 2.70 Euro per pint. A popular drink also among melancholics because
the price/performance-relation is fair. Befitting this standard the
third edition of Pudel Produkte gets released at this very moment under
the working title called "The Dark Side Of The Pudel", that was poopedly
nicked from Pink Floyd, because why work if nothing makes sense apart
from making money. Sable is this record, dark as only black vinyl can
be.
DJ Phono starts off thoughtfully. "Welcome To Your Life" is a minimal
invasive techno ballad that puts a mirror under the nose of users in
order to make them reflect their sad activities. Why is it so that many
people in all the clubs apart from the Pudel of course are so miserable,
when they fill up their noses in the toilet with powder of plants plus
faecal bacteria? DJ Phono takes no less then 10 minutes needle time on
record to work this out, having Hamburgs landmark, the church St.
Michelis, jingle for doom at the end.
Rocko Schamoni dreams of "Electric Hawaii". Dreaming should be possible,
if allowed so by the police, the law-abiding family father thinks.
Schamonis reverie attests to the kind of musicality that brings its
composer an early death, just as Johannes Brahms for example, who died
at 64. Salvation by electricity is one theme of his soulful melodies, as
the embedded bronsonlike quote suggests. Has the romantic entertainer,
who already ascended the sun and the moon, finally made his peak peace?
T.Raumschmiere has the privilege to liven up the magnificent "Stelle am
Mund" (excoriation near mouth) by Felix Kubin and Marc Boombastic with a
remix. The original was first released on the 7'' "I hate art galleries"
by Meeuw Musik from the Netherlands. Raumschmiere builds this track like
a solid piece of construction-workers techno, that pictures the whole
spectrum of what was ruling public discussions over the past 10 years.
"Stelle am Mund" stands for the comeback of hardcore baroque as a grim
end-time stamper that abominates washing with water.
John Callaghan swears to noise and tiff, that he is not a DJ. This
wastefully English looking Brit from the United Kingdom has put together
only the best dark-rave-snippets from all over the world, so that they
develop a powerful suction that flushes all those piped down hopes from
canalisation back to their originators.
Felix Kubin appears as Blixa Bargain, one could think. "Dead End Brain"
is a piece like a snip from the industrial shelf, and Kubin is the
mesmerising consumer whisperer. Despite his evocations of mental
darkness, the attractive science-pop-boy is doomed to remain in the
glistening cone of light caused by his own theophany.
Altogether, "The Dark Side Of The Pudel" is more than just the cheerless
survey of five musicians. It is the sounding document for the fact, that
a dark figure of heterosexual men of all ages are still busy fumbling
around with Pandora's box.
