„ esst obst“ – EP on stetzer (Frankfurt 1998) „.but especially great – above all – is the tremendously relaxed attitude of the short and very catchy melodies on trumpet and melodica varying over time in all tracks without losing the tension.One notices: real skilled dubbers with plenty of dedication at work – true artists that always remained fans.“ (intro on QDD) Quasi-Dub.“ ( de:bug on QUASI DUB DEVELOPMENT) Blumm, Luca Fadda and Alessandro Coronas obviously have fun with their (musik express on „bobby and blumm – everybody loves“) the most beautiful album that has ever been released on Morr Music.“ ![]() „Blumm has chord progressions in his luggage that you can only tremble with the ears ….

While in virtually every review of his numerous solo works appears one of the greatest compliments to music: the link with the utopia of a nicer or better world.“ (spex) „.the reason why it is so difficult to file FS Blumm, also lies in the fact that his music hardly recalls anything comparable.“ (Die Zeit) „Frank Schültge Blumm must be a happy man.“ (spex) „.those who work reduced can not afford trivialities…“ (taz) „.if you need to talk about this music, then you should do it whispering, telling each other how beautiful it really is.“ (de:bug) „.his song miniatures have something soothing and shine in their simplicity and breathtaking clarity.“ (intro) „.also to be applauded is the sophistication of Blumm’s arrangements… Blumm’s skilful layering and placement of instruments in the soundfield is extremely impressive.“ (wire) „.the man makes some damn charming music.“ (pitchfork) – live radio play performances with Stefan Kaminski, Britta Steffenhagen, Christian Berner a.o.ġ998: scholarship from ‘Literarisches Colloquium Berlin‘Ģ0: project- and scriptgrant from Filmstiftung-Nordrhein-WestfalenĢ011: production of interactive childrens-audio-guide for the Jewish-Museum-BerlinĢ014: second prize at ‚Berliner Hörspielfestival‘ for „Der Hörspielmacher“Ģ015: first prize at ‚Jenaer Hörspielfestival‘ for „Der Goldene Zufall“Ģ016: first prize at ‚Berliner Hörspielfestival‘ for „Annette, Rolf und der Gesprächsbedarf“Ģ018: ‚Beste Sendung‘ (Deutscher Radiopreis) for ‚radioeins radio show‘ (including Schültge/Berner live radio play) – live performances in Canada, USA, Mexiko, Japan, India, Bangladesh and within Europe ![]() – collaborations with Harald „Sack“ Ziegler, Nils Frahm, Ellinor Blixt, Jeff Özdemir, Andi Otto, David Grubbs, Lee „Scratch“ Perry, Lady Ann a.o.
