Kmarsquantine Die Objektive Wahrheit


Kmarsquantine Die Objektive Wahrheit
Label: Red Star Budapest RSB06 2006.
Red Star Budapest

When you look at the cover picture of this cd with two, mean lookin, Chinese soldiers with AKs and hand grenade, first impression is a sonic assault. But don’t be afraid this is not screaming power noise stuff. This is much calmer madness done by Enron Pretzel (samples, sound machines, unarticulate singing) and Cjjbrozt (samples, synths, articulate singing) of productive Hungarian Red Star Budapest label. Sound of this lp reminds me a lot of Bruce Gilbert and Graham Lewis “Dome” project released by Mute some 25 years ago. If you ever listened to “Dome” you know what I’m talking about but if you don’t, go and find it for your own good. What Kmarsquantine has to offer in this release: samples of comrade Lenin (which is a RSB trademark), clicks, noises, covers that are not covers of “Les Lita Mitsuko”, “China Chrisis” “Borghesia” x2 (song “Mali Covek” from Borghesias “Resistance” LP is actually a cover of Belgrades avantguarde/new wave band Sharlo Akrobata) songs, old school EBM, Ninja Tune mutant hip hop, grunts, more samples, melodies that sound familiar, pitched and unarticulated voices,…….. This is a soundtrack that exists in everyone’s information overloaded brain.
RSB label is on a unique mission, so feel free to contact them and you will receive their releases for free.
