i have a P16D4 CD, Tionchor' - and also i think they did a track on an album i have but can't remember the name of - where everyone involved (Asmus Tietchens, P16D4, Psychic TV & others) remixes each others' material. was/NAME DELETED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT/ involved in those recordings ? :-)

hi ho martin,
good news but not complete. as there is another extremely weird pre-s/t psychedelic outfit that operated under 2 different names and released two albums
Heavy Kremls & The White House Devils G 1986 Die Reise im Treibsand (ltd. 189) LP DEAD EYE 001 G
Blumen des Exotischen Eises G 1988 Karavane der Mystiks (ltd. 100 mCV, 98 black) LP DEAD EYE 003 G
truly the holy grail of 80's psychedlic kraut,
although I am not authorized to publicise the involved persons.

speaking of kraut, I also want to mention the CD rerelease of an unknown first wave kraut obscurity,
my old friend axel bieber ranted about for ages
Carpenborg, Staff & The Electric Corona G 1970 Fantastic Party (Heavy Noodles) LP MARITIM
unluckily the greedy bastards who made the CD changed the original artwork for something they supposedly think
will sell more, as the funny original sleeve looked like some german fasching (carneval) joke record
great stuff, vinyl still on my wantlist
so long cornelius

Well, I've just listened to Inweglos and found it to be something of a lost gem - very NDW sound, which I've always liked, and better than most of that stuff....
Now.... how and where might I find the Heavy Kremls & The White House Devils and Blumen des Exotischen Eises albums?
... I suspect someone here knows the answer....
; )

... we were both young and didn't know what we were doing ... we both file these records under sins of our youth ...
and the heavy kremls & the white house devils has no s/t connection and the blumen des exotischen eises was
re released half a year or so ago on cd with some bonus tracks and should be still available because i can not imagine that someone will buy it cause it's soo horrible ...
and to give you an imagination how horrible it is you can listen to a one minute outtake that's not on the album
( twenty years ago i thought this is the only good part of a two day long freak out session )

hi alan,
the vinyls are really obscure, I bought mine 2 years ago via ebay from the guy who somehow organised the band and released the albums 21 and 19 years ago, but there is a CD reissue of the "blumen" around I can try to find.

great you like the new s/t item, we were so amazed at the results and I recently got some band photos from the gig
I will put on ning on the weekend

greetings cornelius
