Bambule is a project of Gordon Sharp, better known as Cindytalk, which combines beat oriented material with noise and ambient soundscapes. Named after Ulrike Meinhof’s TV play which is a critique of the borstal system, urging female revolt and class warfare. Two releases on Praxis appeared in 1996 and 1999. The first was a double album collaboration with Cunning which has become one of the more sought after records on Praxis (Praxis 19), the second featured one side by Bambule with intense soundscapes and the other side with two remixes of (so far unreleased) tracks by Photon Emissions, a.k.a. Somatic Responses (Praxis 29).
