Smexmec (demo, 1983)

I know I said this blog is only about official released stuff (and that Didi de Paris/Jan Pap might seem not like one). Here's surely a real demo. This band, of whom I know nothing, had a tape on the Dutch Cliche label and a track on a Contactdisc 2 compilation which I recently re-upped. That reasons enough to post this short demo buy them.

Das Freie Orchester - Now 1990 (cassette, Kröten Kassettem 1990)

Rock music from the former East Germany. Discogs: "Original members of the band were Bärbel Willner, Jörg Thomasius, Dieter Zobel, Gui Gust and Carsten Spindler. By 1990 Thomasius and Willner had left the band and Jörg Dittmar (aka Lord Litter) came to join DFO up until '92 when the band finally broke up. Their music style was a mixture of electronic - experimental - krautrock à la Can, Cluster and Tangerine Dream. They also had numerous sessions, projects and collaborations with artists from West Germany like Harald Grosskopf, Lutz Ulbrich of Ashra and former Tangerine Dream and Kluster member Conrad Schnitzler."

Home-Made Music For Home-Made People Vol. 8: "Sexy But Chic" / Ode To Samantha Fox (Harsh Blend) (cassette, Insane Music, 1990)

A lovely compilation poking fun at a beauty. Includes all the inserts... not safe for work I believe is the word people use in such a case
