Rolf Trostel - Inselmusik (Bureau B) [Full Album]

[@Ramblin-Man]

I stumbled upon 'Inselmusik' ("Island Music"), a selfreleased LP (a very simple release) two years after its orignal release in 1978. It cost like U$D2 (almost an hour's salary in 1980 - before tax...) on some UK snail mail order back when. In 1982 his followup ('Der Prophet') was released on Unition Records in my neighbouring Norway, so it was readily available on Swedish old school mail order. Unition had already released some interesting stuff, ranging from Norwegian post punk/new wave to American new age artist Tim Story, whom I knew from a couple of compilation LPs from American Windham Hill Records, whose star George Winston died June 4 last year - he sold millions of his 4th album of mainly piano music, 'December' in 1982 in North America where it became a popular Xmas album. He also recorded two movie soundtracks where two famous actresses were speaking on each an album; Meryl Streep and Norwegian/Swedish Ingmar Bergman favourite Liv Ullman. Uniton's first release was Conrad Schnitzler's 1981 'Conal', followed up with UK's Mark Shreeve's debut LP, 'Thoughts of War' the same year. After one more album on Uniton ('Assassin' in 1983) I bought 'Legion' on LP on Jive Elecro 1985, and 'Crashhead' (on Jive) in 1988. These had Swedish distribution. Then I didn't here from him until I heard Redshift (and ARC later on) for the first time some 20 years later. Uniton also released 'Agape-Agape Love-Love' in 1983 from once great but almost forgotten Popol Vuh. No, not the early 70s Norwegian prog rock band who had to change names to Popol Ace since Florian Fricke already had registered the name of his group, taken from the Maya "bible" (it's also the name of a museum that opened in 1996 near a university in Guatemala City...). Yada, yada, yada...🤔 /J.
