SACK UND BLUMM-ZACK BUMM, CD, 2001, GERMANY





Following my post of their sensational self titled debut CD, here's another can't miss missive from one of Germany's finest contemporary bands, the collaboration between underground naif polymath Harald "Sack" Ziegler and Frank "Schultge" Blumm. This compilation culls together their first two singles, a compilation appearance and 28+ minutes of material available no where else. The fact that Sack & Blumm have had their work issued through channels more readily associated with the electronica axis has managed to obscure just how much the doings of this idiosyncratic duo resemble, as mentioned before, the addled toy instrument delicacy of Pascal Comelade and Woo. Teasing tendrils of peculiarity out of delicacy and breeziness is a highly underrated art and these two odd ducks do it so effortlessly and with such evident creative force, I for one am frequently left awestruck.
