Mummer

Zitat: "Salute Mummer the new amazing versatile project of former Klein act Mum member Stefan Jungmair and vocal goddess Betty Semper, both based in Vienna and both into the high art of equivocating.

After all apart from being the title of an XTC record, a `Mummer` is someone who likes to disguise, putting on costumes - a synonym for `guiser`. So we´re speaking of someone with various faces and someone who can not easily be identified. All in all `Mummers` like to remain a trifle mysterious and unclear, always full of surprises and unpredictable. It´s music that doesn´t want to come across dead serious but still has you smiling if you take those blinkers off your ears.

Stefan Jungmair used to be part of the Austrian Beathead duo Mum, who were among the first artists on Klein Records. Two men who had venus on their foreheads, all duke cut and got you caught like a trout. Almost a decade ago, Stefan and Paul Schneider started building their MUM universe abusing Electro, 70s Funk, Jazz with a little wink in the eye - defying the logic of musical barriers. Which resulted in strangely hypnotic yet highly danceable velvety soundtracks for imaginary films to conjure up pulsating micro-epics in your head and made the international press sigh with pleasure and scream with confusion. It could have gone terribly wrong if they hadn´t been so tirelessly innovative and funky delivering Fusion the way it should be done."
