dear queen

2011-04-02T08:02:00.000-07:00

dear queen elizabeth,

although i very much prefer monarchy over being ruled by capitalist criminals elected by a clueless mob, i don’t really see you making much of a difference.

so, why don’t you just take a chunk of your estimated two billion pounds and do something useful with it for a change? like buying some rainforest and keep it protected.

sincerely yours.

Uriella

2010-08-06T03:42:00.000-07:00

one night i had this incredible dream of performing "uriella" live on stage.

it was quite a view - the stage had a somewhat surrealistic back lighting in light blue tones with some light "fingers" pointing towards the sky like world war II searchlights.

in the center of the stage, a jazz quartet performed the basic rhythm foundation. an old jazz drumkit and a double-bass as the rhythm section with both a cello at each side producing a low harmonic string drone.

in the back on a podest, or maybe stairs, a choir consisting of four men and eight women, all dressed in uriella-style white pleated garments. all of them, women and men, with flashy makeup, turquoise eyeshadow and fake uberlong golden eyelashes.

it was a heavenly multi-layered sound that was escaping from their mouthes.

there was als a little horn section, waiting for their cue during the final quarter of the song. in the meantime the players were operating various world war II radio units, walkie talkies and transmitters with which they provided haunting radio announcements.

when finally the rhythm section faded, and the horns started to mash with the ever higher pitched voices, the whole stair section with everyone on it was lifted a few meters up towards a huge disco ball that represent the mothership, blinking with lights and things and slowly turning around its axis.

the music eventually faded into reverb and the lights ceased.
amazing...

i would definately buy a ticket for that show....

Dauerfisch Tapes & Records - The Cassette Releases 1979 - 1992

2009-12-10T08:46:00.000-08:00

i found a box with leftover cassette tapes from back in the days and scanned in some of the cover artwork.

if you're interested in 80s cassette culture you might enjoy this...

why can't i download all the ufo shows here?

2009-12-06T07:04:00.000-08:00

dear ufonauts,

i keep getting inquiries about why i'm not posting mp3 links to the ufo hawaii shows here on the blog.

i know it may be difficult to understand for some of you but i'm doing so out of respect for the incredible artists, musicians and bands that are featured in the show.

so, spitzt eure lauscher:

i've devoted my life to music. since i was first able to fit a pair of headphones on, i've been searching for the perfect piece, the unheard beauty, the lost hit.
i even tried to fill in the gaps with music that i put out on my own records.

so what you're hearing on the ufo hawaii radioshows is basically the essence of that.

it still gives me the chills to find a wonderful track amongst all that junk we get cluttered with on a daily basis.

and i do want this other kind of music to live on!

when a ufo hawaii show is broadcast on the radio, the broadcasting station pays a fee to a so-called "performance rights organisation". this fee (well, not all of it, but most), is eventually split and transfered to all the artists featured in the show.
it's only a couple of cents each time, but in the long run this adds up for a busy musician - and many of the artists, especially those who make the leftfield or "uncommercial" stuff are dependent on it in order to continue making their music for you and me.

if i'd put all the existing shows online, ufo hawaii would probably be a much bigger success as it already is - but none of the artists would ever see a single penny.

what i would be doing is stealing their income to make my show more popular.

some of you music addicts may argue, that it is good promotion for the artists if their music is spread around, and therefore it should be free to download. that might be true in some cases, but this, after all, is not our decision:

if anyone has the right to decide if his work should be given out for free, it is the artist himself. show some respect, please.

and let's be honest folks: why would you wanna buy an album, if you already got the best track on the new ufo hawaii show you just downloaded?

and that is why you can't download all the ufo shows here. got it?

but what i'd like to do is to invite you to listen to the latest ufo show - every 2nd friday of the month, at 23:00 (central european time) on byte.fm. absolutely free.

and all the other days of the month when you feel desperate for some of the really good stuff - why don't you lean back and explore the playlists listed here and buy some of the awesome music directly from the artists? this way you are contributing in making good music possible in the future!

hey, and for everyone who made it through here - here's a little freebie from your humble host künstler treu:

my latest coverversion of CAN's great track "full moon on the highway".
let the download begin!

enjoy...

pictopia

2009-03-16T15:49:00.001-07:00

every other year the pictoplasma conference takes place here in berlin. hundreds of talented artists gather to inspire each and have a good time together.

this year's conference is located at the haus der kulturen der welt and it features "pictopia"; an outstanding exhibition of the world's latest character art.

the pictopia exhibition will playfully explore the phenomenon of contemporary character design and art. graphic designers, artists, animators, media and 3D designers work with a shared set of signs, opening up new contexts and correlations.

for the occasion, i was invited to compose a 6-channel sound installation called "plasmagoria" that will be played houerly during the six week exhibition.

having had a sneak preview while setting up my installation, i strongly suggest you take my advice and have a look at the unbelivably cool exhibits. the whole place looks like a giant playground for the audience, featuring giant puppets, hidden love shacks, an eye that follows you, a koala bear peepshow, and lots and lots of incredible art.

and don't forget to take a ride in one of the psychedelic bumper cars while you listen to the wickedest soundrack i've ever composed. take a trippy, dark and psychedelic tribal ride inside a furry creature of your choice...

eine unerwartete überraschung:

nach seiner überaus erfolgreichen tour durch deutschlands kinos (bei denen es leider mitunter zu krawallen und ausschreitungen militanter ostalgiker kam) erscheint HEIMATKUNDE nun endlich auch auf DVD.

ich habe selbst noch kein exemplar bekommen, es handelt sich aber anscheinend um eine "deluxe edition" mit jeder menge outtakes und bis dato ungesehenen szenen.

empfehlenswert natürlich auch für all jene, die sich meinen soundtrack zum film mal schön in dolby 3D reintun möchten.

veröffentlichungstermin ist der 30. märz 2009 - es gibt aber bereits einen amazon-link:

HEIMATKUNDE - the most recent of the movies i've made soundtracks for - is having it's premiere.

On august 14th you can watch this bastard of a documentary - a satire and a roadmovie - at the babylon cinema in berlin; and you can probably have a chat with the directors as well.

the movie features the notorious titanic and spiegel online author martin sonneborn, on his bizarre journey through the outer rims of berlin, where he has extraordinary encounters with the natives of this area.

The Space Songs

2008-02-21T05:43:00.001-08:00

does anyone remember the space songs?

when i discovered those "ballads for the age of science" in 2001, i was immediately inspired by the wonderfulness of hy zaret's lyrics.
and, well, you know me and my weakness for failing on grandious levels and unsolvable tasks...

so what i did in 2002 was to write new music for the space songs in cahoots with french composer and singer chloe leloup. together with the magnificent miss lalavox we performed exactly one unique concert in potsdam and a vinyl 7" was released in japan on escalator records later the same year.

since then the space songs album has been hiding quietly in my drawer, next to the never-released 3rd dauerfisch album and a couple of other records i've done which have also never seen the lights of day.

last summer however, i got an unexpected call from SOPOT - a small indie label from bremen with a nice catalogue. Through quite mysterious channels SOPOT has gotten word of the Space Songs record and wanted to release it.

So behold! The 28th of March 2008 will be the official release date for:

And for those of you, who are too eager to wait - check out "What is the Milky Way" on the brand new Escalator release "We Were Escalator Records 2.2".

monster zero

2007-03-15T07:06:00.000-07:00

what a great name for a song - that was my first thought when i heard about misty roses' newest release.

"There’s an old dictum that says, “The longer the note, the more dread.” Trans-Atlantic duo, Misty Roses, it would seem, stick almost religiously by this axiom on latest release, Monster Zero. Infecting menace into the dense electro of the title track and even into the dub-infused drum 'n' bass of 'Sleeping Beauty' and ambiance of 'Innsmouth Jewelry', Monster Zero is, otherwise, a gonzo contraption of separate moments and sounds.".

well, that said, check out the monster zero treu remix - now out on frog man jake...

last night i finally met with charming duchess says from montreal.
it was a lot of fun meeting the upstarting band & to hang out together in the stinkiest backstage room ever, at white trash berlin. no wonder there was a sign on the wall warning for "gasansammlungen".

don't miss the release of the hit single BLACK FLAG - TREU vs. DUCHESS, august the 30th.

the main difference between legal and illegal music software

2006-07-13T07:19:00.000-07:00

the legal way:

you buy a piece of software from a well known software company - which by chance has it's headquarter even in the same berlin kreuzberg neighbourhood you live in. you send the money and you add a little extra postage for "one-day-express delivery", yay!

after 2 days of waiting you write a friendly email requesting the tracking number of the package. soon after you get a preformatted textblock in return. your request will be answered within one or two more days.

after waiting for another 2 days, without ever receiving an answer to your request, you write another friendly mail - which stays just as unanswered as the previous one.

after almost a week of waiting you call the sales manager. he seems to be a little mixed up, but yet a friendly fella. and he promises to help speed things up. your request to combine a little spaziergang with coming over to pick up the package personally is unfortunately turned down.

on day 7 you get a request to stay patient because your sowtware is about to be shipped. yay!

on day 8 you get another email that your item will soon be shipped.

on day 9 you spend the day playing computergames and chatting with friends. mmmh..there's a lot of lint to be removed from the computer's fans...

the illegal way:

1. fire up limewire.
2. have a coffee while downloading.
3. install. voila!

(of course we don't do nasty things like that!)

hifi underground

2006-05-08T03:18:00.000-07:00

richard just dropped by with a copy of "hi-fi underground", the latest arling & cameron husarenstück - still warm from the pressing plant.

it's planned be released in benelux june 3rd - europe, asia and the u.s. are following in august resp. september.

what can i say? the album is so poppy, there's no doubt it'll be a huge success for the boys.
and i'm of course really honoured to participate. i'm also looking forward to hearing miss lalavox' voice all over the radio soon...

märz musik

2006-03-01T03:34:00.000-08:00

very busy times here at treuland. maerzmusik has invited der plan to perform with a 70 piece orchestra and a children's choir here in berlin. so i'm busy writing scores for strings, brass, bassoons, horns, timpanis and what not. it's quite interesting and i'm learning a lot about how an orchestra works, haha.

so watch out for soundalikes on the 21st of march when the brandenburg staatsorchester finally meets der plan.

i'm also looking forward to the new arling & cameron record "hi-fi underground" which will be released in may. i' assisted richard and gerry with some nice synth sounds and melodies along the way. miss lalavox is also performing on two of the songs on this very catchy and crafty album.

heaps of künstler treu guitar and basswork will be also be heard on trash noire's debut record, which is still in the process of being mixed for a proper demo version.

and last not least, princess superstar just dropped in and hopped out again to record a cover version of queen's "body language" together with fluffy target for her upcoming album.

we shared the stage with ellen bandit and cobra killer who of course were stealing the show. the crowd was a cheerful mixture of fashion victims, fake football hooligans, trashy cross dressers and some strange hairy objects that reminded vaguely of les gammas.

happy new year

2006-01-01T10:19:00.000-08:00

dear friends.

a happy 2006 to all of you.

even though 2005 has’nt seen a künstler treu solo release (i was very pleased by the fact that so many of you were asking), it feels as it has been quite a busy year.

it was marked mainly by our travels with der plan. we were guests in sweden, france, spain, canada and japan and we did meet a lot of friendly,helpful and passionate people on our tours. thanks to all of you. i hope we’ll meet again.

der plan live in tokyo

also my musical and personal friendship with richard cameron brought a lot of joy and excitement into my life. with the release of our first 12” maxi, our project fluffy target is on it’s way now. we’re hoping to do a couple of live shows in 2006.

so, will there be enough time to do another treu album this year? well, i sure hope so. with the help of some very good friends there are already a couple of nice tracks that made it onto my harddisk. they need to grow a little more of course, but we’ll see what happens...

for now i wish you all the best for another year of exciting music, personal growth and whatever it is you’re wishing the most.

aloha,

happy 2005

2005-02-07T11:39:00.000-08:00

dear friends,

2004 was a busy year here at treuland. and 2005 seems to be revving up to be just as turbulent.

last year was shaped mostly by the work on and the release of the new der plan album die verschwörung, which i'm very proud of.

we got lots of both enthusiastic and scathing reviews - indicating that der plan is still good for causing unrest and divergence. i would have felt bad if the album had only been gently applauded by each and every lamer in the writers guild. in times like these, who needs music sans content anyway?

der plan premiered live at the periferias festival in huesca / spain and was spoiled to pieces by the passionate audience there. a lot of live performances are planned for 2005 as well. we'll be visiting sweden, france, spain and japan soon.

my collaboration with richard cameron has born fruit as well. we're currently working on our new project "fluffy target", which you should be hearing from quite soon.

not much time left for hanging out - particularly since the mutter boys are always recruiting me for live-gitarrenlärm. the documentary movie "wir waren niemals hier" (we were never here) about the band is celebrating it's premiere at the berlinale this february - a good opportunity to practise some red-carpet-walking.

latest newsflash: i just received a brilliant remix of der plan's "deutschland, bleiche mutter" from dj malente. it"ll soon be released on the belgian dance label lowlands. i'm looking forward to have this thingy spinning on my 'tables...

thanks for staying in tune. yours treuly,

good promotion

2004-10-17T10:30:00.000-07:00

dear friends, sorry it’s taken me so long to update this time.
i’ve been so busy working on projects with der plan and mr. cameron that i’ve barely had the time to shave. eeew!

i just discovered something very cool and exiting: it’s called “good promotion” - and i think it’s the next big thing.
it all started when i began getting lots of offers to participate with my work on various cd-compilations, newly founded web-labels (they sprout like mushrooms!), commercials, and the like. people from all around the world are offering to use my musik and, in return, give me good promotion for it.

i was a little sceptical at first, because i worked so hard on all those tunes, and there was, of course, no money involved. but in the end - and that’s the whole point - it all will be very good promotion for me and my work. so i dropped my objections and, thinking it over more deeply, realized that this is actually a very interesting concept.

early the next day i was ready to give more good people the opportunity for some good promotion too. first thing in the morning i asked gisela, the saleswoman from my bakery on the corner, for a promotional breakfast supply, which will at some point be really good promotion for her and her business. and guess what... she handed my a whole bag of good berliner schrippen with a big smile! man, that was successful.

next thing i tried was to convince the driver on the bus to town about the advantages of good promotion. somehow i had the feeling that he did not really get the whole concept behind good promotion. he seemed quite distracted anyway. but in the end he waved me through and i got a free ride into town.

the next day i expanded my promotional activities and gave my landlord a call. he owns various buildings in the area and it definately would have a good promotional effect for him to have a well-known artist like me living in one of his appartements. but what a bummer! that guy is just so old-timey! he really thinks he’s fine without any promotion for his business at all. how silly is that?

but, i’m telling you folks, this sort of narrow-minded behaviour still seems to be strong in our society. people often need a long time to grasp a new groundbreaking concept. our local gas and power suppliers are the best example. and even somewhat “new” businesses, like my telephone and internet providers, are still not ready for “good promotion”. not to speak of georgio, the owner of that little italian restaurant here in my street. he actually acted kinda rude. nevertheless, i think of “good promotion” as a thing of the future. people just need more time to appreciate the benefits of giving your work away for free. i still strongly believe in the spirit of “good promotion”. i’m even thinking about calling my next album that. yours treuly,

künstler treu

supatopcheckerbunny

2004-06-01T11:40:00.000-07:00

just recently i found myself sitting in the studio admidst my musical pandemonium, brooding over dark and unhealthy thoughts.

all through the years i have been sprinkling wondersome tunes across the world and still the four walls of my little studio remain empty of them platinium records they should rightfully be plastered with.

to cheer myself up, i wrote a little note to the supatopcheckerbunny, that ever-helpful little rodent of titanic fame to asked for some advice that could brighten my tortured mind.

a couple of days later, as i was right in the middle of having a good cuppa cawfee at the breakfast table, and was still wearing my pyjamas, the doorbell rang unexpectedly. surprise! a little white rabbit stood in front of me and introduced herself as the supatopcheckerbunny.

"mang, you need a hit record - that's fo sho" she said. and while i was still fiddling with my morgenmantel, she plopped out a tiny guitar from her fluffy fur and started strumming and singing. quickly, i leaped to turn on the revox tapemachine, whilst the fluffy fellow was dancing 'round the microphone singing hysterically, "hey! freaks! listen up, i have a message for you...!".

when i plugged in the little moog to add a freaky lo-fi bassline we both got into a jamming frenzy. in nullkommanix the new song was on tape and later back in the kitchen over a strong pipe of the best homegrown and a carrot, bunny gave me some very useful advice. she said: "you've got to continue making good music, even if it's not paid well. people love you for your music, they just don't wanna to spent too much on it, because they need their stash for designer clothes. just imagine you are karl lagerfeld. he has so much money that he just don't care about it any more. if you'd buy big sunglasses it might help, too".

"thank you supatopckerbunny!", i shouted, while the little critter hopped away to catch the last u-bahn.

lindner glühbirnen - das sind die besten!

2003-06-15T16:07:00.000-07:00

gestern abend war es so weit. so unerwartet wie unspektakulär ging sie mit einem kaum hörbaren “zing” in die ewigen leuchtgründe ein: die glühbirne meiner alten blauen tischlampe.

zig umzüge hat diese lampe schon mitgemacht. 1986 oder so auf einer bummeltour durch die trödelstuben der berliner bergmannstraße gekauft, später durch die zone nach west- beziehungsweise süddeutschland importiert, beleuchtete sie meine diversen spätjugendzimmer und ging, obschon aus glas, nicht einmal bei einem der vielen folgenden umzüge kaputt.

1990 dann der umzug ins frischgewendete berlin.
ich erinnere mich, daß diese lampe damals schon mit selbiger blauen lindner-glühbirne bestückt war, die nun über all die kommenden jahre abend für abend mein neuberliner heim in angenehmes kühles licht tauchen sollte.
mindestens 5000 nächte lang tat also dieses stück deutscher wertarbeit seinen dienst.

wenn ich, im gegensatz dazu, an meine osram- bzw. narva bestückte deckenlampe denke wird es mir ganz schmerzlich bewußt: ein einziges mal nur, am tage ihrer installation erstrahlte dieses ding im vollen glanze ihrer zwölf kerzenförmigen leuchtmittel. seither waren ständig mindestens eine, oftmals jedoch mehr als die hälfte jener minderwertigen produkte symetrievernichtend durchgebrannt.
ständig knallen diese kleinen mistdinger durch, mit ihnen die fi-schutzsicherung, was dann eine neuprogrammierung sämtlicher, in meinem haushalt leider im übermaß vorhandenen, elektrogeräte zur folge hat.

diese nur zur ihrer eigenen schnellstmöglichlichen vernichtung vorprogrammierten birnen gibt es nun an jeder ecke zu kaufen.
wo aber gibt es diese herrlichen, jahrzehnte andauernden produkte der firma lindner? ich weiß es nicht.

vielleicht ist der von mir imaginierte firmenchef dieses kleinen mittelständischen betriebes längst mit zerschnittenen bremskabeln von einer autobahnbrücke in den abgrund gerast, bekam nach dem genuß einer tasse kaffee im ausflugslokal unvermittelterweise einen herzinfarkt. möglicherweise ist er aber auch aus unerklärlichen gründen plötzlich mit seiner privaten cessna abgestürzt.

so wie seinerzeit dieter binninger, der geniale erfinder, der uns berlinern nicht nur die wunderbare mengenlehre-uhr am kurfürstendamm, sondern nebenbei auch noch die “ewige” glühbirne beschehrte, deren patent nun in irgendwelchen schubladen böser menschen verstaubt und von der seitdem niemals jemand wieder etwas gehört oder gesehen hat.

oder war der plötzliche tod binningers nur vorgetäuscht? vertreibt der mann unter dem unauffälligen pseudonym lindner weiterhin seine ungeliebte erfindung? diese und viele andere fragen und vermutungen schwirren mir durch den kopf, während ich hier im zwielicht sitze. denn draußen wird es abend und ich habe immer noch keine neue glühbirne gekauft.

das ist musik

2003-02-24T11:46:00.000-08:00

dear friends, what's the news?

busy times at the moment; fiddling with mr. cameron on his new solo album, and some final adjustments to the forthcoming appleton record. both of these guys are outstandingly warmhearted people and wonderful to work with. i'm really looking forward to seeing what comes of all this...

i recently went on safari with peter licht. his new album will be out soon too. check out the maxi, it's lot's-o-fun.

ahhh - and before i forget, the brand new eleganz label compilation is about to see the light of day at last. "das ist musik" features exquisite tracks by all your favourite eleganz gang members like elektrotwist, jean michel, treu und ..., as well as our new label entree, ali plays.

and finally: spring is coming! yee-haaw!

rock harder

2003-01-18T11:48:00.000-08:00

hi friends,

thanks for checking back in 2003.
i really hope this year will rock harder and louder than lame old 2002. let's work on it together...

here is something for a starters:
i'm happy to announce the first release of my brand new project "the space songs". the debut single is released by escalator records, japan, and just hit the stores in tokyo. check out their website (www.escalator.co.jp) for more details.

right now i'm busy working on a remix for peter licht. his song is called "safari nachmittag" and you can be assured that i will provide you the full dosis dope exotica on that one, hehehe...

aloha,

le treu

remixed life

2002-05-04T11:49:00.000-07:00

hi friends, and welcome to remix hell.

it took quite a while to get all the stuff togetherfor this little sweety, but there she is: the brand new treu maxi-cd, featuring two neat "postcard from aforeign strand" versions by the gentle people and the phoneheads.

and this is just to cream your panties for the upcoming "postcard" vinyl killer 12", featuring mixes by tim 'love' lee, jean michel, the gentle people (with a absolutely grand rick-wakeman-meets-the-art-of-noise prog monster) and a very nervous phoneheads club mix.

oh boy, i owe these guys...

aloha,

künstler treu

oh no! home again!

2002-04-04T11:51:00.000-08:00

hi friends,

oh no!
seems i'm back from hawaii.

and what did i bring along for you as a holiday goodie? a whole pile of old whacky records from which i derived a wonderful new mix. it's called "ufo's over hawaii" and you can listen to it on the goodies page.

now i've got to think about getting enough stash together for the trip next year...
maybe if you buy the "sketchbook" remix 12" that comes out in may - that'll help.

now have fun listening... aloha,

künstler treu
