Bummelkasten's music videos are clicked thousands of times a day. The Berlin-based one-man band has made a name for itself on German children's music shelves with their debut album "Irgendwas Bestimmtes", which is entirely mouth-watering and euphoric for children, parents and non-parents alike. Her songs develop a pull that is hard to resist. No wonder: this pop-ideal a cappella beatbox sound - which is delightful with its detailed arrangements and its vocal and musical playfulness
and musical playfulness - is wonderfully unadulterated and entertaining - is not only unparalleled in the children's genre. With sophisticated lyrics and stubborn humor, Bummelkasten leans far out of the box and breaks new artistic ground.
"Will you please come?" - the often used, politely embellished phrase of many
parents - is presented in the song of the same name in such a penetrating
and so often answered by an infantile "Jaahaa" that it almost hurts. In "Wandern", a sinfully casual song about - well - hiking, the themes of nature and media consumption merge. But it is above all Bummelkasten's quirky characters that children get their money's worth: Max, the escalator-riding toilet paper thief. Susi, the toughest of all princesses, who likes to grill pony sausages and drive to the bakery in a monster truck. Shiny, the fairy of lights, who treats herself to a trip through the solar system but quickly gets fed up with every planet she visits.
but quickly gets fed up with every planet she visits. Bulli Battmann, a nasty schoolyard bully who cries into his pillow at night, or janitor Klaus, the smartest janitor ever.
So take your sticky fingers off the sofa, take off your stopper socks and go for another pee: the strolling box is in town!
