heh thanks! and great story! funny you should mention childhood memories from the 80s - this found tape of kids singing and swearing just cracks me up! this is exactly the stuff I used to do..
no real musical value here, more like turning bad ass swearing into art!
haha great stuff! Funny and sad at the same time, that they had to write such a lengthy text to justify the making of ass-kicking synth tunes using "western" equipment and styles. Well I guess if they hadn't, it would have been high treason or something :-/
BTW this reminds me, in 1987 I visited Magdeburg in East-Germany with my dad. They had some spring cleberation fair going and on a stage, there was a breakdance-group performing to similar sounds! Of course, breakdance was quite outdated in West-Germany at that time so at first I thought something like "those poor easterners..." but I changed my mind quickly as those guys really rocked! And the music was quite funky too, nothing I had ever heard, and also since it was a public performance, it must have been of communist origin. Way to go guys - even if the commies are Arne Treholt's enemies, I have to give them that ;P
