Biography

Among his many other monikers, Uwe Schmidt performed as Geeez 'n' Gosh, a name he applied to his glitch-house recordings for Mille Plateaux. Beginning with My Life With Jesus (2000), Schmidt took the motifs of gospel house -- Christian rhetoric and celebratory house music -- and interpreted it in a glitch style. The resulting music isn't heavy on Christian rhetoric besides the occasional sample here and there, but the packaging and song titles certainly are. You're left to determine just how ironic Schmidt is being here since he delivers the gospel rhetoric with such a straight face. This ambiguity sets the Geeez 'n' Gosh releases apart from most glitch albums, which tend to be short on such curious conceptualism.
