Kom-Intern: Funkspiel

Artist: Kom-Intern (@)
Title: Funkspiel
Format: CD
Label: Brume (@)
This one can be considered more of a news rather than an actual review because unfortunately the promo CD I have received from Brume was a CDR and the copy must have fucked up the entire album (because it didn't appear to be scratched). Except for the first three tracks the entire album skips continuously so it's hard to get the facts straight with so little to hear. From what I can tell the french duo Kom-Intern (formed in '99 by ex-Corpus Delicti bass player C-Krees aka Dj Dominator and by ADN-RA aka Dj Kochise) is back after their year 2000 debut "Order 937" with an album that dots the i's and crosses the t's in the word "Indus-Trial", where "trial" stands for experimenting with mixing power electronics and dark industrial, most of the time just on top of those hard pounding industrial beats that the duo seems to love to use. Nine tracks based around the concept of the "l'Orchestre Rouge", the red orchestra in Nazi Germany, an espionage ring set up by Leopold Trepper under Hitler's nose in occupied Western Germany to give Stalin a heads up on the Russian invasion and the Battle of Stalingrad (Gilles Perrault wrote a book which also became a film in 1989).
