T.Raumschmiere – Monstertruckdriver

 

If the title doesn’t forswadow it, yes, this is one hell of a quirky and catchy instrumental.  T.Raumschmiere is one Marco Haas, a punk techno DJ hailing from Heidelberg, Germany.  If you like left-of-center electronic, think Royksopp, then you’ll more than likely enjoy this track.  This track can be found on his 2003 debut album, “Radio Blackout”.

About the name (from wiki):
The name T.Raumschmiere is a cut-up from the German title of the short story “The Dream Cops” by William S. Burroughs: “Die Traumschmiere”.

The German title contains several different meanings:

  • TRAUM = dream, subconscious
  • RAUM = room, space, venue
  • SCHMIERE = grease, lubricant, smear, spread

 

 

Cyndi Lauper – Lay Me Down (Produced by Kleerup)

Kleerup (who is easily one of my favorite electronic producers) teamed up with Cyndi Lauper in 2008 to release “Lay Me Down”.  Kleerup re-released  “Lay Me Down” as an instrumental named “Thank You for Nothing” on his 2009 self titled  debut  album.

There was a rumor that Kleerup re-named “Lay Me Down” as “Thank You for Nothing” in response to Cyndi Lauper not allowing him to include the track on his own release, but this was later declared a false rumor by Kleerup.
