Electronic musicians including Objekt, Suzanne Ciani, and Alva Noto have contributed to a free, downloadable new cookbook.

Launched by electronic instrument manufacturers KORG Germany, The Pyjama Cookbook compiles food and drink recipes from KORG staff, friends, and family during the lockdown.

“As our small team of Verena, Lydia, Max and I clamber to get KORG Germany off the ground, we occasionally swap cooking recipes,” writes KORG Germany CEO Tatsuya Takahashi in the book’s forward. “What a lifesaver. Because who isn’t tired of their own cooking by now? And why not collect more and share?”

“The aim of The Pyjama Cookbook is to share the favourite concoctions from our friends from all parts of music, in the hope of instilling solidarity and encouraging friendship during these extraordinary times. Well. It’s also just for laughs. Have fun.”

Highlights from the book include soda bread by Objekt and pasta alla genovese from Suzanne Ciani. Other contributors include early Einstürzende Neubauten member Gudrun Gut, Cómeme honcho Matias Aguayo, and former Dirty Projectors collaborator Deradoorian.

The cookbook is available to download from the KORG Germany website, free of charge.
