VOC #18 has wiki-contributor Hermann Schindler (aka Propellerkuh) whipping it out. The track is called “You-Nique!”. Hermann says:
It’s a piece about stupidness of radio-listeners and Austrian radio-programmers, who always play music of Brian Adams, Bonny Tyler, D.J.Bobo, Cher, Celine Dion, Spice Girls, Rolling Stones, Joe Cocker, George Michael, Arrowsmith, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, or other up-to-the minute-actualized white-list-item over and over again while they themselves and the local public is too dumb to check when they are beeping out “dick” or “fuck” when once in a year they play “Bobby Brown” but not understanding when Lou Reed sings “… she never lost her head even when she was giving head”. They probably misunderstand that for some kind of special tender stroking like one would treat his dog or cat…
Just another proof of cultural and social retardedness.

HEYYY – I don’t know Austrian but I know what I like … that just happens to include melodious sarcasm that involves animals bleating.
Also grateful for “Celine Dion-&-on-&-on-&-on-&-on-&-on” for being a good little diva & staying in her Las Vegas contractual-obligation compound & not returning to Canada, thus keeping our Quality Of Life index rating up.
So spiffy that I had to play it again, Sam.
Oh damn, someone’s still playlisting the SPICE GIRLS?!? Eegads! Won’t even touch Aerosmith. OR Joe Cocker. Or George Michael – much to his chagrin.
Yow, it’s surrealism-by-proxy!
A lot of fun, Hermann. I don’t know ‘Austrian’ either (or German for that matter), but it works just fine for me anyway.
OK, just another – well documented & fabulous – Austrian attempt to New Music is the great
Franz Koglmann.
Just contact him.

Open Ears Festival ( in Austria)
marvelous
more I say!
Freak out music… more, more…
Could us stupid Americans get an English translation of the script?
Most worthy – sorta Eno-esque.
Nifty insertion of the Master and his guitar near the end.
A certain Family Trust I know of might not be pleased…
Heh-heh.
