Wumpscut
:wumpscut: is the output of one Rudy Ratzinger, the latest in a long and outstanding line of German electronic artists. :wumpscut: uses the electronic medium to create a dark body of music that explores the themes of isolation and desperation. First conceived in 1991, with the earliest works appearing in cassette-only form in 1991 (Defcon) and 1992 (Small Chambermusicians).
These early works came to the attention of Vuz Records, who collected :wumpscut: to appear on their New Forms of Entertainment CD in early 1993, and released Rudy’s debut effort, Music for a Slaughtering Tribe, in December of the same year. In 1994, Rudy began seeking alternate outlets for his material, releasing a mini-CD on Ant-Zen Records in 1994 (Dried Blood) before creating his own Beton Kopf Media in 1995. The first nine months of 1995 were very productive for :wumpscut:, starting with the mini-CD Gomorrha in January and culminating with Bunkertor 7 in September.
In February of 1996, :wumpscut: released The Mesner Tracks, a set of tracks that had appeared on various compilations over the years. :wumpscut: also appeared on the first of The Remix Wars, whereby Rudy remixed a number of Haujobb cuts while Haujobb returned the favor on a group of :wumpscut: tracks. It was this remix EP that was :wumpscut:’s first appearance on a North American label. (official site)
