FLAGGE ZEIGEN

(DEUTSCH)
Ein kleines Statement zur Lage der Nation.
Wir sagen NEIN zu den Corona Leugnern.
Wer das Virus leugnet, dazu noch andere gefährdet, braucht dringend einen Aluhut, den wir gerne kostenlos zur Verfügung stellen.
Unsere Label Chefin Irina, diplomierte Kinderkrankenschwester und nun in der mobilen Pflege tätig, hat selbst schon mit Corona Patienten zusammen gearbeitet und sie wünscht wirklich niemandem die möglichen Folgen dieser Krankheit.

Natürlich soll man nicht in Panik verfallen und auch den Spaß am Leben trotz der Pandemie nicht verlieren. Dies hat auch letztlich unsere Corona Hymne "Don't Panic, It's Just a Pandemic" von "Ralli Rock" zum Inhalt

Aber man soll bitteschön die Gesundheit anderer respektieren, die Hygiene Maßnahmen bereits aus Eigeninteresse befolgen und man soll auf keinen Fall gemeinsam mit hasserfüllten Anhängern eines verlorenen und verdorbenen Reiches marschieren.
Es gibt Grenzen und wir sagen ganz klar NEIN zu Rassismus & Hass.

Klar könnt und sollt ihr demonstrieren, wenn es Anlass gibt. Dann achtet einfach auf die Hygiene/Abstandsregeln und achtet vor allem darauf, wer da neben euch mitläuft. Das gilt generell!!
Man sollte sich von niemandem instrumentalisieren lassen.

"Wer mit Nazis angeblich für Freiheit demonstriert, eventuell sehr schnell die wahre Freiheit verliert".

Bleibt gesund, bleibt munter, bleibt human!!
Eure CMP- Crew


(ENGLISH)
A small statement on the state of the nation.
We say NO to the Corona deniers.
Who denies the virus, in addition endangers others, urgently needs an aluminum hat, which we gladly provide free of charge.
Our label boss Irina, a certified pediatric nurse and now working in mobile care, has worked with Corona patients herself and she really doesn't wish the possible consequences of this disease to anyone.

Of course, one should not panic and also not lose the sense of humor in life, despite the pandemic. This is also the content of our Corona hymn "Don't Panic, It's Just a Pandemic" by "Ralli Rock".

But one should respect the health of others, follow the hygiene measures already for self-interest and one should in no way march together with hateful supporters of a lost and corrupted empire.
There are limitations and we clearly say NO to racism & hate.

Of course you can and should demonstrate if there is a reason. Please pay attention to the hygiene / distance rules and especially pay attention to those who are walking next to you. This is generally true!
You should not let yourself be exploited by anyone.

"Who supposedly demonstrates together with Nazis for freedom, may very quickly lose the true freedom".

Stay healthy, stay lively, stay humane!!!
Your CMP- Crew

Medienkonverter News bzgl. des neuen Testphasen negativ Albums "Die soziale Apokalypse | The Social Apocalypse"

DER ABSOLUT KRANKE WAHNSINN VON "TESTPHASEN NEGATIV!"
Die älteren Herrschaften unter uns erinnern sich noch gerne an den Ursprung von Industrial, Dark Wave, Post Punk und den ganzen Krach gegen das Establishment. Und in eine ähnliche Kerbe schlägt jetzt Musiker "Ralf Rabendorn" mit seiner Band "Testphasen negativ" und dem Release "Die soziale Apokalypse | The Social Apocalpyse".

Und tatsächlich erinnert das Debütalbum aus dem deutschen Industrial Umfeld sehr an Veröffentlichungen von den "Einstürzende Neubauten". Wir erinnern uns schnell an "Yü Gung"! Das Release hat damals wirklich Grenzen verschoben und neue Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt. Und was soll man zum Album von "Testphasen negativ!" sagen? Meine Meinung ist: Leckt mich am Arsch – der Wahnsinn trifft auf Genialität! Hier trifft der schiere Wahnsinn auf die Kunstform als Musik und das Release ist fernab jeden Massengeschmacks. Allein das Video "Ritual" macht Bock auf mehr und DAS Release werde ich mir auf alle Fälle in den Plattenschrank stellen!

Aber verschiebt das Post-Industrial-Goth-Noise Meisterwerk von Ralf Rabendorn auch Grenzen? Wir werden sehen! Jedem der neugierig geworden ist, bleibt der Blick ins Video um sich eine eigene Meinung zu bilden.

17. Januar 2019

(DEUTSCH)
SEHR WICHTIG
Die Deutsche Post hat es verboten, CDs/LPs wie üblich für Kosten um 3,90-6,20€ (voll versichert) international zu versenden:
Ihr müsstet jetzt 8,90-35 € zahlen!!

Was das bedeutet:
Wir, als ein echtes unabhängiges Label, sind jetzt kaum mehr in der Lage, CDs an internationale Rezensenten zu senden. Wir sind kaum mehr in der Lage, international zu verkaufen und das alles nur aufgrund der explodierten Versandkosten.

Deutschland ist ein Land, das von Gier, Kapitalismus und dem Schatten-Kabinett, der Wirtschaft, zerstört und ruiniert wird.

Wir halten das Label am Leben, aber dies könnte der Beginn eines langsamen Sterbe-Prozesses sein. Wobei wir erst aufgeben, wenn wir tot sind!

Wir müssen jetzt erstmal abwarten und nach ALternativen suchen, was den Versand anbelangt.

Dennoch: Die neue Testphasen negativ CD "die Soziale Apokalypse / die Soziale Apokalypse" kommt auf Deluxe CD (natürlich gepresst) am 19 Februar, 19 2019.

BESTEN DANK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(ENGLISH)
VERY IMPORTANT
German Post (Deutsche Post) has forbidden to send out CDs/LPs the usual way for costs around 3,90-6,20€ (fully insured internationally.
You would now have to pay 8,90-35€!!

What does this mean: We, as a true independent label are for now now no longer able to send out CDs to international reviewers. We are no longer able to sell international, due to the exploded shipping costs.

Germany is a land, run and ruined by greed, capitalism and the shadow cabinet, the economic.

This could be the beginning of a slow dying process.

For now we have to wait and search for shipping alternatives.

New Testphasen negativ "Die soziale Apokalypse/The Social Apocalypse" is coming on Deluxe CD (pressed, of course) on February, 19 2019.

October/November 2015

Unfortunately German webzine "Kulturterrorismus" has surprisingly closed the doors.
We weren't able to save all reviews for our CD's, which is a shame, cause we have received fantastic critics from this zine. A few have been saved though, but not many, so some (not yet updated) links lead to an empty page.
Beside that, we are sad to see KT go.....R.I.P. and thx to Raphael.

"War is EVIL!"
by  Mr. Ralli Rock & The Moan of the Sky
 
Download at:
http://Skymoan.bandcamp.com

You pay what you want, but keep in mind that half of the income of this song will be forwarded to an organization helping victims of  war!

Support!

VIDEO links:
http://youtu.be/nvx3_iyUcoY
http://youtu.be/wRHL_iVTFMs



Words by the band:
"War is evil" is just a simple song.
This video was not made to support this song.
Actually the video was made one day before we recorded the song.

This video is NOT about sensationalism!!!

We couldn't stand the pictures of the never ending Gaza war (and other wars) and almost went crazy.
We had to record something. This poor little song was the result.
It was written and recorded within two days.

Anyway, this song came from the heart, with the victims in mind and it came spontaneously.
Sometimes we have to do something, have to shout it out, even such simple and naive messages.
Sometimes the simplest messages are the best ones and sometimes they HAVE TO be simple!
"War is EVIL!". Period.

February 2013
The German Underground webzine "Kulturterrorismus" has published a review for Ralf Rabendorn's "Exile" album.
Well, even if it is written "only" in German, we have to (cause we want to) publish it here, too!
The direct link is:
http://kulturterrorismus.de/rezensionen/ralf-rabendorn-exile.html

Official words by RaF/Kulturterrorismus
Viele Musikalben verfügen über Berührungspunkte, aber NIEMAND anderes als RALF RABENDORN vermag in einen unendlich Sog von (dunklen) Emotionen zu ziehen, den der Misanthrop(?) auch auf “Exile”, seinem neuen meisterlichen Soundtrack, kredenzt, welchen er aus den Genres (Post-) Rock, (Dark-) Ambient & Black Metal(?) zusammenschraubte – WAHNSINN!

RALF RABENDORN stellt mit Abstand das eindeutigste Beispiel in Sachen aktuelle Labelpolitik dar, wo Mitläufertum ohne Ecken und Kanten dem handwerkliches Können in Kombination mit totaler Eigenständigkeit Vorzug findet, weshalb “Exile” halbwegs im Selbstverlag (als CD-R) über ContraMusikProduktion, Against.it Records & Global Hideout erscheint, anstatt im Form ein gepressten CD über ein großes renommiertes Label.

Brüder im Geiste könnten RALF RABENDORN und meine Person sein, der ebenso im “Exile” verweilt, weil ihn die verrottete Gesellschaft dazu zwingt und er keinen Ausweg aus der aussichtslosen Situation findet, worin der Künstler immer tiefer “einfährt”, wobei Zigaretten usw. ständige Wegbegleiter sind, die nur kurzfristig betäuben, aber schlussendlich keine Lösung beinhalten. Im Endeffekt muss man (Frau auch) sich mit diesem Zustand abfinden, dass die Moderne keine emotionalen Denker (& Lenker) mehr benötigt, sondern intelligenzbefreite Mitläufer,  die sich von Industrie & Politik ihr Leben vorschreiben lassen – PUNKT! Nachsatz: Nur zu gut kenne ich die offenbarten Emotionen auf “Exile“, wogegen keine “Volksdrogen” helfen, sondern nur der “nackte” Verstand, der irgendwann die Reißleine ziehen muss. Heißt, letzte Kippe rauchen, letzte Nacht mit Alkohol betäuben, den Körper reinigen, täglich Sport treiben und nicht über die niveaulose Menge nachdenken (und zur Not in Arbeit stürzen) – FERTIG!

Vielleicht bzw. Gewiss verstehen nur Individuen, welche selbst im erklärten “Exile” leb(t)en, RALF RABENDORN und seine Tonkunst, die eine emotionalen Achterbahnfahrt ohne Haltepunkt & Ende gleicht, wodurch das übermannende Hörerlebnis weiter über die Spielzeit hinaus anhält – WAHNSINN! Einen Soundtrack (mit 16 Stücken) dauerhaft auf Spannung zu halten, entpuppt sich bei den meisten Interpreten als Reinfall, hingegen RALF RABENDORN zelebriert Spannungsbögen, meist Abgründe, Lichtblicke unter 1%, am Fließband, weshalb “Exile” Unmengen an Aufmerksamkeit benötigt, um komplett Evaluierung zu finden. Alleine die immense Instrumentierung aus Piano, Gitarre, Bass, Schlagzeug, usw. benötigt x Hörproben, um großteils im Kopf anzukommen. Daneben glänzt RALF RABENDORN abermals mit seiner charismatischen Stimme, die die Texte (RALF RABENDORN und zum Teil G. James Wyrick) mit viel Nachdruck in die finstere Welt hinausbläst. Insgesamt ein massiver, zeitweise undurchdringlicher Soundtrack, den RALF RABENDORN mit “Exile” kreierte, der eindrucksvoll das Elend der Gesellschaft vor Augen führt, wovon die Mehrheit das Release keinesfalls versteht.

Fazit:

RALF RABENDORN Werke besprechen zu dürfen, gehört im Verlauf der vergangenen 10 Jahre betrachtet, zu den Herausforderungen überhaupt, wo sich sein neustes Meisterwerk “Exile” nahtlos einreiht, das in meinen Augen wie Ohren sein persönlichstes (wie emotionalstes) Opus (bisher) darstellt – meine absolute (Kauf-) Empfehlung! PS: Falls Sie “Exile” von RALF RABENDORN nicht verstehen, gehören Sie zur mitlaufenden Masse in Deutschland!

Official statement from the Testphasen negativ Facebook wall:
Unfortunately Testphasen negativ member Jarosch von der Grünen Alm died on October the 24th.
He passed away much too early.
The remaining member and founder of Testphasen negativ is going to continue this project.

First the saga continues with unreleased material, which has been recorded within the last years.
There are at least 3 albums recorded with the original band members waiting to be released within the next months and years.

There is also one album that will come out "hidden" (not as Testphasen negativ, but....).

 Thanks goes especially to the true core of Testphasen negativ fans.

CMP is acting as the main distributor for RJ's new mini album.
The Chinese "GiN"- Label has released this excellent concept mini album on 3" CD that comes in a prof. printed cover and special (sealed) protection bag.The music itself is a mix of experimental music, concrète- noise and more. We have enough (but not too many) copies in stock. Buy this album  now and visit the "Distro" section.

Iri Li is a member of the Infinitus Ensemble, co-founder of the MEDUSADA movement/genre and she is also a member of the crew.

R. Rabendorn has produced "Broken Summer" and helped with the artwork, though Iri Li contributed many of her own pictures for the cover. Expect a wonderful MEDUSADA album.
(Experimental/Avantgarde/(Dark)Ambient/Surrealism/Concrète/Field Rec./etc). Many "real" instruments were used (Ac.violin, gong, theremin, piano, guitar,many field recordings and other noises, but also synths & keys).
This album is without a doubt one of the CMP highlights,
therefore we have decided to release it in a great looking digipack.

Release date: 25. December 2008 Album is available!!
