"It seems almost incredible that Ursula Bogner’s musical talents should have remained undiscovered until now. Yet in view of her biography, this might have been just as inevitable.It was on a flight to Vilnius that I met Sebastian Bogner, Ursula’s son, who told me he was on a business trip for a pharmaceutical company. The usual small talk soon led to the topic of his mother Ursula, who also ‘liked to play around with synthesizers’, albeit purely on an amateur level and in a dedicated music room fitted especially for this purpose in the parental home. Among her acquaintances, it was simply considered one of her many eccentric hobbies and not paid a great deal of interest. At a cursory glance, Ursula Bogner’s life seemed simple and bourgeois to the core: a pharmacist, wife and mother, firmly ensconced in a detached house. A setup that made her obsession with electronic music all the more bizarre, an obsession that drove her to build her own studio for extensive recording and experimentation."
Read the full story on Faitiche and be sure to check out the samples. Really great stuff. Fascinating story that makes you wonder how many others were out there. I wish we knew what synths she used. via floppy.
awesome. thanks so much for posting.
ReplyDeleteKnowing Jan Jelinek, there's a fair chance this is another fake discovery of his like The Exposures album he released a few years back.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't really matter, cause the music is great, but I take this 'discovery' with a grain of salt.
Ursula looks like Jan Kelinek in drag.
