RELEASE DATE

Bureau B present part two of their
Filmmusik
double release. In 1975,
Conrad Schnitzler
recorded various pieces of music to accompany films which had yet to be made. Fittingly, he labelled this collection of songs
Filmmusik
. Only one of the tracks - "Gute Fahrt" ("Nice Journey") - would ultimately be paired with a film, now traceable on the internet for all to see. The music is included on
Part 1
of Bureau B's
Filmmusik
double release (BB 244CD/LP, 2016), erroneously entitled "02/1980". Why the incorrect title? The tapes, which served as source material for the label's two
Filmmusik
releases, were copied onto two data carriers then mislabeled. To be precise, one label was accurate -
Filmmusik 1975 A
- but the other,
Filmmusik 1980 B
, was not. All the tracks had been created in the same year, so it should have read "1975 B". In the absence of actual song titles, Bureau B simply gave them numbers. Not knowing of the above mentioned film at the time, the label called the track "02/1980", when they should have called it "02/1975 B" or, as they would later discover, "Gute Fahrt". Shortly after, Bureau B released
Filmmusik 1
and
Jin Kawai
, curator of the official Schnitzler website, contacted the label with the information. In 2009, whilst sorting through reels of film (some shot by Schnitzler himself) and music to upload to the site, Kawai was particularly drawn to one piece entitled "Gute Fahrt". Were there any more tracks like this? Schnitzler told him there were and sent Kawai all of the other recordings. One half of
Filmmusik 2
comprises tracks from the 1975 series, the other half is a 23-minute piece with the title "Lichtpunkte und schwarze Zeichen". This music was actually written for a film in 1978. The label was delighted to find it in 2015 and enthusiastically searched the Schnitzler archives for more of the same. This led the Bureau B to the 1975 recordings and the rest is history.
