The Obelisk Questionnaire: “Komet Lulu” Neudeck of Electric Moon & Worst Bassist Records

komet lulu

The Obelisk Questionnaire is a series of open questions intended to give the answerer an opportunity to explore these ideas and stories from their life as deeply as they choose. Answers can be short or long, and that reveals something in itself, but the most important factor is honesty.

Based on the Proust Questionnaire, the goal over time is to show a diverse range of perspectives as those who take part bring their own points of view to answering the same questions. To see all The Obelisk Questionnaire posts, click here.

Thank you for reading and thanks to all who participate.

The Obelisk Questionnaire: “Komet Lulu” Neudeck of Electric Moon & Worst Bassist Records

How do you define what you do and how did you come to do it?

I am doing artwork, music and have a little record label, so it’s all related to each other.

I define it as exploring the soul realms, life, the universe within and trying to make a living from this. I came to it naturally, it unfolded as my way with every step i did in this society, knowing from an early age, that I do not fit in the regular way.

Describe your first musical memory.

There are two from the same time. I was maybe 5 and my mom listened to CSNY in the car and I asked what this was and when the song “Deja Vu” ended, I asked her to play it again. It kept stuck in my head since then, this ethereal melody of the vocals…

The other memory was in the same age, my dad listened to a record of The Doors and “Riders on the Storm” began and I was like “Wow, what is going on there?”

These two moments feel like my gateway in consciously listening to music.

Describe your best musical memory to date.

This is a tough task, haha. There are so, so, so many.

But maybe it was my first Motorpsycho concert and they played “The Wheel” in full ecstasy, followed by “Vortex Surfer.” I wasn’t far from exploding emotionally back then…

When was a time when a firmly held belief was tested?

At a young age, when my parents parted ways after a long period of arguments, it kind of broke my basic trust.

This was my firmly held belief, until I realised, that I was already collecting the pieces since then, all the time, and that I was building a new thing from these, full of cracks but beautiful and my own…

Where do you feel artistic progression leads?

Being on an artistic journey, to me, is like being a scientist of life. Constantly reflecting, realizing, questioning, appreciating, loving…

How do you define success?

To me, success is being kind of happy where you’re at.

What is something you have seen that you wish you hadn’t?

This is interesting, as soon, as I want to type my answer, my brain says, “Well, but on the other hand, seeing this, made you think about it.” – There are few situations I recall, seeing a pig getting killed directly in front of me, seeing my best friend getting beaten down by a stranger, seeing someone with a gun preparing to shoot, seeing someone die – but all of these situations made me reflect in the end. Interesting.

Describe something you haven’t created yet that you’d like to create.

Pottery! And a huge painting, mural or so. And a solo album.

What do you believe is the most essential function of art?

Nurturing our souls and changing our perspective… Basically, making us encounter something.

Something non-musical that you’re looking forward to?

Finding home. :)
