Title:	Kopf Zahl Bauch

Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 028CD

"Over a period of more than one and a half year, Cologne based artist Harald 'Sack' Ziegler, partner in Sack & Blumm as well as collaborator with Mouse On Mars, worked on these 11 tracks of his new album. Guest musicians Mouse On Mars, Joseph Suchy, Marcus Schmickler, FX Randomiz, Reuber, Blumm, Guido Möbius and Ron Martin contributed to the recording process, not by remixing tracks, but by adding to and finishing the material that Harald gave them. Kopf Zahl Bauch is Harald 'Sack' Zieglers strongest and most complete solo release to date, going new ways in sound, but keeping the humorous Dada pop style which is a trademark of him. The shimmering mix of cheap electronica, German vocals, weird rhythms, samples and guitars almost always manages to stick to a more or less loose song format which will heavily appeal not only to fans of early New German Wave."

Title:	Punkt
Label:	STAUBGOLD (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 059CD

A killer collection of Cologne-based legend Harald "Sack" Ziegler's greatest hits, fully re-mastered from his long out-of-print vinyl and cassette-only releases. None of these 22 tracks has ever been available on CD before. Besides his incredibly large discography produced as a solo artist over the past twenty years, Harald "Sack" Ziegler has released three critically- acclaimed albums with F.S. Blumm as Sack & Blumm, and continuously collaborated with Mouse On Mars, both live and in the studio. An innovator and pioneer of the '80s German tape scene, Ziegler is a techno-Dadaist composer/pop artist of the highest order, known for his frenetic live shows with toy instruments. His shimmering mix of cheap electronica, German vocals, weird rhythms, samples and guitars almost always manages to stick to a more or less loose song format tending to appeal not only to fans of early German new wave, but also to anyone who has an inexhaustible love for wonky melodies and funky sound bites. A master of many instruments, Ziegler is as likely to whip out a French horn as he is a beat box, and Punkt collects more pop/noise/child music insouciance than you can shake a toy flute at.
