pfarrkirchen, somewhere in the heart of lower bavaria, in the
south of germany. never mind, there are tons of similar small
towns and villages in that part of the country. an area that is
like the perfect setting for the everyday drama of kids growing up
in a pop-cultural wasteland. enjoying music at least as much as
metropolitans of the same age, country-youths sizzling
weekend-action consists of either visiting the typical oldies/rock
club - where the "record-entertainer" has been canning the same
old 'goldies' in a never changing sequence for more than a
generation - or meeting with your friends at the local gasstation
for shooting some cans of beer, or - which is the ultimate thrill
- you might do both. on the other hand this hopeless scenario plus
the typical bavarian stubborness also equips some lunatics with
special powers that makes them not to look for the fastest way out
but rather to change their local surrounding. giving proof to a
very smart german writer, who came to the conclusion that true
creativity always grows in the province, reinhard wimmer is a fine
example.
it all started in the early 90es when "reini" detected a
fascination for acid jazz, the dancefloor jazz movement and the
accompanying revival of goatees and flares. soon he began to
collect old jazz- and funkrecords and played those to his friends
and to a ever growing crowd. that way he met other vinyl junkies
just as marcus hacker and together they founded the dj-team called
"spinning wheel". after having rocked tons of clubs and having
organized lots of partys in their area, reini finally had the idea
to establish their own location in an old cinema.
while playing an eclectic mix of rare funk and jazz, nujazz,
deephouse, drum'n'bass and hiphop in a theater-room with a sloping
dancefloor and booking djs only known to insiders to a small town
with 12.000 inhabitants sounds like rule number one for the
fastest way to bankruptcy, the bogaloo club became a success.
originally run by reinhard wimmer and his long-time mate and
barkeeper josef wiesmeier the team was soon completed with the
addition of wolfram "oscar" aichner, who created some vital
changes. since lots of bogaloos faithfull guests and supporters
had to take long road-trips to visit the club, saturday became the
main evening and therefore the perfect night for a monthly series
called "elephantenrunde" ("elephant meetings") featuring well
known and cutting-edge djs and bands to add some of that extra
flavour. members of jazzanova, various acts of compost-,
infracom!- and stereo deluxe records and more and more guests from
foreign countries such as the posse from viennas most excellent
radiostation fm-4 (makossa, werner geier, bto spider and dsl) or
in demand djs like alex attias, modaji, enrico "volcov"
crivellaro, dego, amalgamations of soundz, depth charge and kruder
& dorfmeister etc. delivered tearing performances and shook the
bogaloo to its foundations.
all the clubs activities are advertised and later documented on an
always updated and posh looking website created by the very
talented graphic designer uli wolf (who also helds responsible for
the artwork of several spinning wheel covers). the site soon
spreaded the word outside of the region and helped the bogaloo to
establish itself as one of the basic columns of the international
nujazz-scene.
we could go on for ages to list all the peoples names who helped
us set up the bogaloo and who still put so much energy into our
common goal. therefore this compilation is not only a showcase of
the clubs musical spectrum but especially a big thank-you to all
the friends that keep on working on the phenomenon called bogaloo
every week.
