Cassave by Robag Wruhme In future times, culture historians will refer to Gabor Schablitzki aka Robag Wruhme as a creator of a singular techno sound, a rock in the murky sea of arbitrary musical dullness that befell mankind in the early 21st century. Furthermore, a lesser known quality of Schablitzki will be praised and explored: He was a relentless wordsmith, a deeply passionate inventor of elegant idioms that enriched German language. Take ˜Freggelswuff™ or ˜Wemmel™ as shining examples. It™s within this context that a certain cultural artefact released on a Cologne based record label called KOMPAKT (which towards the end of the 21st century made a hardly publicised turn to manufacturing CO2-neutral wall plug systems) that went by the sonorous title ˜Topinambur™ has to be mentioned. Legend has it that Schablitzki claimed to have created the word ˜Topinambur™, unknowingly that local farmers have been marketing a root tuber under the same name since it got imported from America in 1610 AD. The following tenacious copyright lawsuit between Schablitzki and a large agricultural consortium lasted for many years. It isn™t considered as a highpoint in Schablitzki™s turbulent life but it still serves a staircase wit that is passed on from generation to generation amongst Black Forest moonshiners.
