The Bearburger (tape, Uniton Records U018, 1983)


Norway's Uniton label mainly released vinyl, and Discogs doesn't list this cassettem but it lists a compilation on the same label with a track from this cassette (plus another compilation with them). The music is quite nice. Synth based ambient music, with small bits of rhythm.

Romantic Distortion (tape, Shot 002, 1983)


"An international group of musicians met in Berlin dec. 82. All sessions on this tape are played and recorded 1120 feet under the surface of the earth". Involved are Maria Weissgold (Praha), Murphy Tatcher (Johannesburg), Valentino Cawalho (Barcelona), Blake Colby (Houston), Steen Foss Andersen (Copenhagen) and Emad El Din Naguib (Cairo). Very improvised music, which sounds quite Dutch if you get my drift (think Suspect or Schalflose Nachte).

Die Wahrheit - Eine Million Bibeln (tape, 1983)


A great tape of German madness. Improvised, chaotic, lo-fi and full of wacky humour. Created with guitar, bass, casio, rhythm box, harmonica, suitcase, saxophone and such like.

Kong (tape, 19??)


Most of the music posted on this blog was available in one form or another, and I rather not post demo's, but here I make an exception. I have no idea why I am doing this exception. Maybe because Kong always looked great on their four stages, with each member having one. Later on they became well-known. Heavy rock with samplemania.

Rasta Robert - Chronologie (tape, 1986)


Quite an odd tape. You could think this is reggae stuff but its not, or not really. It hints a bit towards it, more dub like if you wish, but also some overtone singing. Quite experimental stuff. From The Netherlands.
