Revered Hamburg enigma and VHS specialist Braun Jaschkewitz racks up a full clip of coldwave bullets for local bastion V I S, counting stacks of killer, unidentifiable private pressings, flohmarkt finds and legendary gems.

The first of two ‘Neid Dabai Zu Sein’ (or ‘To Give Envy’, if we’re not mistaken) tapes brims over with an early ‘80s quintessence, all screwed drum machines, tart synths and an enchanting mix of German and english-sung vocals that exemplifies the era’s diversity within a theme. 

Like a sorta parallel to Annie Hogan’s goth salvos, Jaschkewitz’s selections run a finely-shaded gamut of vibes from wiry lo-fi to poppy NDW and sultrier swag. It’s frankly facemelting parade, mostly taken from 7”s and recorded in one-take, although you suspect he spent serious time pulling out that track-list, which holds to an absolutely head frying mesh of steady, sleazy pacing, but prangs off at right angles when you least expect it.

We are dedicating our anniversary show to Chris Brick, whom we met in his shop in Cardiff in 2008. This encounter continues to inspire us in many ways to this day.

Smylonylon (pronounced SMILE-on-NY-lon) was a vintage clothing boutique in downtown Manhattan. It opened in 1994 on Crosby Street. The shop was owned and operated by Chris Brick (of Family of God and Demob Clothing) and his wife Judy (singer Linda Lamb), who happened upon a large stash of vintage clothing from the 1970s in 1993. Certainly their eclectic taste in music influenced the atmosphere of the shop, perhaps even more than the clothes, and Chris collaborated with his friend Alex Gloor (In Flagranti) to tirelessly produce mixtapes of their rare record collections, ranging from South American exotica and French orchestral music to Italo disco, musique concrete and minimal synth.

There are 30 volumes of mixtapes titled Smylonylon, and others titled Tynyny, named after a legendary party in the West Village hosted by the shop's crew.

This version is without the spoken parts, just the music.

Don Kashew takeover.

For those of you who do not know Don Kashew, he is an artist whose music we released in November 2022. A supplier of your favourite natural antidepressant, eternal fanboy and wannabe troubadour. He’s part of the Zurich driving local vinyl community and regularly plays records somewhere in Switzerland, mostly as a resident at der Kern Bar. As a DJ and producer, Don Kashew delivers a dark dystopian journey that begins with the search for his sound ongoing from the past several years. Don Kashew’s music has been described as reflective and danceable, dark and united with melancholy underlined with wit and humour. Listening chronologically to his releases showcases the variety of hypnotic material that reflects Don’s search of new sound development, affected through time and change, environment and empathy, diligence and insouciance, carefully packaged and influenced by his creative procedure.

Dee Dee's Picks presents: Don Kashew (02.03.24)

Second part in a killer, wave-surfing double header by Hamburg enigma Braun Jaschkewitz for the V I S label, getting weirder and spanning wider than the first volume with ample screwballs and WTF bullets inside.

Where the preceding volume focussed on synth-pop, NDW and new wave, ‘Neid Dabai Zu Sein #2’ plays out a sleazier, more spangled soundtrack to creeping the Reeperbahn and scoring wraps of wizz. If the first volume mostly left us scratching our head for a tracklist, this one has us totally flummoxed for its flux of top shelf obscurities, which open with what sounds like a field recording of Pac-Man in an arcade and proceed to pluck curios from behind the ear. 

Vocoder-led echoes of Zeus B. Held give way to curdled NWD grooves, horny boogie woogie, cybernoir soundtrack and an absolute zinger in that german cover of The S.O.S. Band’s ‘Just Be Good to Me’ on the A-side, before he cues up lysergic synth soul, oily electro downstrokes and piquant funk-not-funk, plus some heroic ‘80s main character themes and speedy steppers on the flip.
