  • Bio

    this site is no longer updateted. please visit: www.pulka-music.com ------------------------------------------------------ Pulka's music moves between Postrock, Electronica, Soundtrack, New Wave with textures of Highlife and Pop. He scratches beneath the surface of lush orchestral sounds and hypnotic harmonies with strange fizzing noises and whirring bleeps to create a music that is somehow ethereal yet immediate. "I am interested in the moment at which pop suddenly appears within experimental music and vice versa" A good reference point is the Talking Heads albums produced by Brian Eno. Here world music influences are allowed to play without the esotericism, Batik cloths and flip-flops. Instead pop music is able to find a handle without grouping around in some fashion. Pulka's sound evolves anarchically and spontaneously without being dragged down by the constraints of dull musical rules and foundations. You can still hear the influences from Pulka's time as the bass player for '12 Kappen Wasser'. Sometimes you come close to something that you did not even know existed.

Album"da" Pulka is the name of the sami people's transport sleighs, on which they glide through the snow-covered regions of Lapland. In the music of Frank Szardenings aka pulka the wind also comes head-on, while on the sides crystal clear glacier water seems to flush by. In the midstream musical clocks spin round – after all, pulkas also serve as prams. when mister pulka resides in his Berlin room and makes the instruments sing, the nordic images emerge to such an extent that one believes to be located in a well-tempered igloo. pulka is a multifarious freestyle, playfully and rhythmically fidgeting. For this, Szardenings uses cuts and clicks, woodwind and string instruments. One could dance to it, yet one does not have to, because pulka's electronics do not act instantly euphoric, but provide stirring composure. We have to assume that this music does not only appeal to friends of Steve Reich and Mark Hollis, but also to persons under the age of 6. On pulka's debut diverse idioms are to be found among mindfully composed flow and more open sound entities. A friendly, human mechanism unfolds with something comforting in its simple functioning. If Tortoise were a Finnish solo project, perhaps they would sound like pulka.

Hier entstehen durch Echtzeit–Sampling Songs, live direkt vor dem Betrachter. Pulkas Musik bewegt sich zwischen Postrock, Electronica, Filmmusik, New Wave, No Wave, Rocksteady, Highlife-Texturen und Pop. Irgendjemand hat sie mal als „beinahe kammermusikalisch unaufgeregt" beschrieben. Dann wieder fiept und frickelt es und die hypnotische Harmonie wird mit sanfter Hartnäckigkeit gebrochen. „Mich interessiert der Moment, in dem in experimenteller Musik der Pop zum Vorschein kommt und umgekehrt", beschreibt es Pulka selbst. „Ein gutes Beispiel dafür sind die Talking Heads-Alben, die von Brian Eno produziert wurden." Hier funktionieren Weltmusikeinflüsse auch ohne Esoterik, Batiktücher und Flip-Flops. Letztendlich findet der Pop einen Weg, mit dem schwierigen Thema Weltmusik umzugehen, ohne in die Peinlichkeitsfalle zu tappen. Pulka funktioniert völlig unakademisch und ohne fundierten Background. Es zählt immer noch der Satz aus der Zeit, in der Pulka den Bass bei „12 Kappen Wasser" spielte: Manchmal kommt man an etwas heran, von dem man vorher nicht wusste, dass es überhaupt da ist.
