SKELETON DISMEMBERED!-BIN ICH ODER IST ES KNOCHEN?, TAPE, 1993, GERMANY
Intensive and claustrophobic Neue Deutsche Welle with an obvious akin to the acrid sturm und drang of Einsturzende Neubauten, though Skeleton Dismembered manipulate similarly corrosive components to appreciably different ends, from teasing out events into acidy tracers though suctioning filtration on ""Reliefpfepler" and "Flehen Ohne Ende" to downshifting into the spectrally droning malevolence of the lengthy "Rite". The cover appears to suggest that this is from 1977, which seems distinctly unlikely given the look of the cassette shell itself and the sonics contained therein (and if it is in fact from '77, then give these boys a prize, as they both anticipate and surpass much of what followed 3-4 years hence), but whatever it's date of origin, this is The Serious Goods.
NOTE: As Joseph mentioned in the comment board, it turns out that this is in fact not a NDW-era release at all, but a tape from 1993, though one would be forgiven for mistaking the sonics for the period article, so close is the spirit here to early 80's Einsturzende Neubauten...

Well, after a net investigation, I found out a page about a german producer named BERT OLKE ( see the image you posted, on the lower left side : B/ OLKE ...). And if you scroll down the page, you will see a list of REFERENZEN and lower yet a list of CD-MAstering : the last item on this list is this MC dated from 1993 ...

Some clues about this one. See the name of the guy on that page : Bert Olke and then the lower left side of the image you posted : B/ Olke. Then there's a list of his "works" : as the last item of the list headed CD-MASTERING you can find this MC dated from 1993.

A few comments on this...
The Contact adress on the left uses a 5-digit zip code for Berlin-Kreuzberg(10961, all Berlin zip codes start with a 1)
Before 1993 all German zip codes were 4-digit.
The (C) notice at right would read for a German as 11.93 (see how the first two digits are identical to the '1' in the Berlin zip code). The 7 is usually handwritten with a dash through.
The three dots around the numeral '93' might be a current 93 reference.
