Music Montag: MUMMAA
by James Glazebrook
This is some crazy shit. The Kaotic World EP was produced using just a Korg Kaosillator and recorded in a series of one-take blasts by Berlin-based, Scottish solo artist MUMMAA. Described as “alt-pop” by their creator, tracks like “Kaos Theory” and “Melancholy for a Megadrive” owe more to old school rave and chiptunes, like the soundtrack of some long-forgotten 16 bit video game. Kaotic World can be heard in all its wonky wonder below, under the video of MUMMAA busking in Paris, and is available for free download over on the artist’s Bandcamp.
Niiice Ghetto Blaster there. The Korg Kaosillator is certainly fun but why can’t these people use wobbulators etc etc, though, ala Delia Derbyshire?! I can but dream.
