Musicas secretas y vandalismo pop

Yesterday, Schubert’s “An die Musik” was performed at Chemnitz City Hall, accompanied by a full orchestra and a mezzo-soprano. A declaration of love. The Capital of Culture has triggered just one thing among the colonial and provincial officials – hatred of beauty. Even high culture is now to be curtailed, whilst officials and functionaries increase their salaries and pensions.

Now it would be nice (and I can almost hear it already) if this were just a provincial farce. But it’s the agenda. Germany has fallen prey to malicious stupidity – indeed, the whole world has.

All the better, then, that the underground and music exist. Also yesterday, a parcel I’d been eagerly awaiting arrived, containing a book given to me by the Spanish anarchists. Above all, a true friend from the Basque Country, Iñigo, put me in touch with “Agente Provocador” in Madrid. Of course, it’s not a gift; we’re swapping art for art. As soon as my screen-printing setup is up and running again, “I hate people” T-shirts will be printed. For EVERYONE!

The book with the lovely title “Brutalismos” is about youth, music and subcultures from all over the world. Rebellious youths, rockers, punks and teddy boys. Czech beatniks, Japanese biker gangs, Scottish skinheads and, of course, Spanish anarchists. Self-empowerment without the state and without officials.

Because one thing we’ve learnt is this: whether East or West, nothing good comes of it, for only the courage to use our own minds will save us. That’s why: Down with the traitors – no love for the state.
And music is one of our strongest allies.

Du holde Kunst, in wie viel grauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb’ entzündet, Hast mich in eine bessere Welt entrückt!

Anarchismus und Anarcho-Syndikalismus | Hörbuch Teil 1

von Rudolf Rocker
– einem der bedeutendsten Denker des libertären Sozialismus und des Anarcho-Syndikalismus im 20. Jahrhundert.

Rocker beschreibt die Grundlagen anarchistischer Ideen und setzt sich intensiv mit Freiheit, Föderalismus sowie der Kritik an Staat, Autoritarismus und kapitalistischen Machtstrukturen auseinander. Gleichzeitig zeichnet das Werk die historische Entwicklung anarchistischer Bewegungen nach und erläutert die Rolle von Gewerkschaften, Arbeiterorganisationen und dem revolutionären Syndikalismus innerhalb gesellschaftlicher Befreiungsbewegungen. Dabei verbindet der Text politische Philosophie, historische Analyse und gesellschaftliche Kritik.

Das Werk erschien ursprünglich 1947 und zählt bis heute zu den bekanntesten Einführungen in anarchistische und anarcho-syndikalistische Theorie.

Nasu🍆Nasu has written a very interesting comment on yesterday’s article about the Japanese rocker scene. Very fascinating. Much like the US rocker scene, there are myths that contain a grain of truth but are really just legends. I still like the idea of young people organising themselves after the war. Very little of it is true, but it’s so fascinating that people are still interested in it today. Thanks to Nasu🍆Nasu for this insight. #rocker #japan #ww2 #yakuza #legend #myth

Japan’s brutal (punk) rockers
Did you know that the first biker and punk gangs, the Bosozoku, in Japan were made up of former kamikaze pilots who had survived? They had nothing to lose. It was much the same in the US, where it was also World War II pilots who founded the biker gangs in the 1950s.

The Hells Angels didn’t come out of nowhere. The black leather jacket, which remains a symbol of rebellion to this day, was simply the old pilot’s leather jacket in the early days. In Japan, this subculture led directly to the yakuza and to Japan’s rock ’n’ roll scene, which is still active today. Read the – as always – fantastic article by the Spanish anarchists on Agente Provocador
