a friend acquired almost every one of the children's records years ago. i remember the better ones being "electronic record for children" and "captain entropy." my personal fave though is the first "electric lucifer", which completely shits all over the second one (which is like the same song over and over, pretty sucky imo). didn't know there was a doc. about him wow!!!!!

fyi, this kind of slipped by me, but Haackula was released in June
Bruce haack's 'haackula' is the record you've dreamt of and the stuff of nightmares. Deemed to be too dark and too offensive for release when it was recorded in 1978, it has languished unheard in the vault ever since. With it's premiere release here it will soon be revered as a lost classic of outsider electronica. Haack's anger with a society he sees as too straight and too claustrophobic is palpable as he hisses and cusses his way over astoundingly elastic electro backings. Already respected as one of the pioneers of twentieth century electronic music, haackula strikes out on this disc into dark, yet playful territory where few have gone before. Imagine a very, very bummed out kraftwerk scowling as they play childlike melodies and sing under their breath of fear and abandonment. One listen to haackula's "blow job" is sure to change the way you view electronic music forever. As well as the full haackula album for the first time this release also features haack's extraordinary 1982 collaboration with russell simmons (def jam/public enemy/beastie boys) 'party machine' and the incredible 32 minute (!) 1979 soundscape composition 'icarus'. All tracks make their first official release here and are lovingly remastered from the original tapes. Often bootleged, (incomplete with an incorrect track-list and much inferior sound quality may we add!) The dark jewel that is haackula now sees the light of day in this deluxe premiere edition. Strap in, and let haackula sink its teeth into you!
I haven't bought it yet, but I will

"Child Psychologist" is just as terrifying and weird and awesome as anything Throbbing Gristle ever did
― Curt1s Stephens, Tuesday, 29 July 2008 02:37 (sixteen years ago) link
oh man I got haackula and Blow Job is the funniest shit I've heard in a while. The sound on the whole album is pretty great, but that one track is just so smooth its ridiculous. I don't know why, but whenever I listen to haack I'm reminded of Gary Wilson, both dudes creep me out in the same way maybe.

haack was gay? the liner notes to electric lucifer reference two "partners" (ted pandel and chris kachulis) but it's unclear whether that was a working relationship or a romantic one.

I'd never heard of this guy before, but I was listening to Cluster last night and when the album ended it started the usual shuffle of random related stuff, some of which was familiar to me (Harmonia) and some of which wasn't (this guy). When I looked down to my phone to see what was playing it looked like it was from this:https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a0224066765_16.jpg
I thought, hmm, West Chester. I grew up in West Chester, PA, what does this have to do with West Chester? It turns out that Ted Pandel was on the faculty there, and at some point Haack moved down to be closer to his (musical?) partner. I had no idea electronic dudes of this pedigree were hanging in my childhood home.
