FUNKSTORUNG are celebrating their tenth anniversary and they're commemorating their decade of existence with music, as is befitting of their cultural standing.In line with the cover artwork, this mind-expanding birthday cake is called Funkst rung Presents 'The Return To The Acid Planet', which is being served in 12 slices on nostalgic double vinyl. There will be no CD format release for this title.On "The Return To The Acid Planet", Funkst rung ponder their own beginnings. In 1995, UNIT MOEBIUS , the Dutch industrial techno veterans, released the first records by the boys from Rosenheim on their label BUNKER RECORDS and, most notably, on its evil twin, ACID PLANET. A total of 53 tracks on 6 mini-LPs were produced during this phase. When cleaning uptheir studio, Funkstorung rediscovered used tapes and old vinyl containing the music of that timeand they couldn't resist listening to them, just for fun of it. On 'The Return To The Acid Planet', it's those distinctive fuzzy sounds of the 303 and 808 that set the tone for sure. In contrast to ten years ago, the tracks weren't produced on the original equipment. Instead, they used reverse-engineered reproductions made by the technical experts among their circle of friends. Admittedly, Funkstorung haven't even tried to remain true to the originals. But they have remained true to themselves, by incorporating into them theexperiences they have gained from 10 years in electronic music production.
