Sack&Blumm are not a band or a studio project but may be described
rather as a homerecording project that was conceived independendly in
their bedroom studios in Berlin and Cologne. The digital
multitrackers and the german postal service ferrying their ideas back
and forth were definitely playing a major role in the production of
the album. Tracks were produced in several steps, e.g. Frank would
record the African finger piano from the first track "Seathing" and
send a DAT to Harald in Cologne who would then layer the recording
with his French horn and send the tape back to Berlin.
As Frank explains, "Sack&Blumm knew each other and kept meeting each
other on many different stages throughout Germany. Frank Schueltge
"Blumm" was playing with "dieauch" his band of that time and Harald
"Sack" Ziegler was performing as a solo artist. The first
collaboration was initiated by Bernd Spring who is running the Dhyana
label. Blumm wanted to do a release and Sack was already expected to
do a release for him, so Bernd combined the two of them and the
result was "Die fⁿnfte Dengelophonie": not a split- but rather a
cooperation-single that was - in contrast to Sack's answer on
Staubgold - influenced more by Blumm. A common style and a balanced
working process was found with the help of Tom and the release on his
label."
Instead of sequencing work on computers, the music lives from the
experience of two musicians. Folk themes are set against digital
fragmentations, and techno tropes are taken up on acoustic
instruments. "Sixtease", for instance, takes jungle's two-step and
scores it for wash-tub and spoons. Most of the instruments on
Sack&Blumm were played live onto the multitrack and the arrangements
of the electronic sounds are produced with Haralds toy instruments. A
PC was used only for the track "Pim Pom Pom" and for the final
mastering process that was done by Tom Steinle.
" Sack&Blumm like it best to produce their music
mechanically/physically in the room, using more or less everything
that they can get in their hands. Structures arise from our curiosity
in the origin and the physicality of sounds (wood, stone, sheet
metal, paper, air... ) and from experimenting and playing with the
materials (plucking, beating, rubbing, blowing... ). Musical
instruments are based on these principles of generating sound and
musical instruments can be everything and they can be found
everywhere. The ones that you find in the toy stores are most of the
times very attractive because they carry these very beautiful
overtones in their ground noise level or they tend to be totally
unpredictable which makes a high potential for surprising results.
And not to forget, Sack&Blumm have both followed classical training
before on their instruments horn and guitar. The compositions of
Sack&Blumm are most of the times improvisations to a recorded tape,
an opportunity, a reaction and open ears for what is coming out from
its own. What we like best in Sack&Blumm is new mail from each
other."
