Arabischer Vietmanese

 

Another eclectic piece of German electronic music at the end of the month. Schlammpeiziger is the pseudonym that Cologne-based musician Jo Zimmermann has adopted. He has been tinkering with electronic sounds, mostly based on a Casio and beatboxes, since the 80's. 

In the meantime, he has expanded his spectrum and added guitars and effects to his sound. Most of the tracks on his new album Meine Unterkunft ist die Unvernunft (my accommodation is unreason) have the charm of late Krautrock and remind me of the best moments of Ash Ra Temple. A beautiful and calm album that convinces even on second listen.
