Patent Ochsner was founded in 1990. The name of the band is derived from a certain type of trashcan which is named after the J.Ochsner AG and can be found in housholds all over Switzerland. In 1991 their first album Schlachtplatte was released with the hits Bälpmoos and Scharlachrot. They had a great success and became a well-known band in Switzerland. After Böbu Ehrenzeller left in 1998 as well as Resli Burri and Tinu Frutiger in 2001 Büne Huber released his solo-album called Honigmelonemond. In January 2003 their album Trybguet with the new formed band was released.
The current band lineup:
Büne Huber (Vocals)
Monic Mathys (Base)
Andi Hug (Drums)
Christian Brantschen (Keyboard, Acordeon)
Menk Grossniklaus (Saxophon)
Disu Gmünder (Guitar)
Pascal Steiner (Tasten und Blaswerkzeug)
Daniel Woodtli (Trumpet)
Style of Music
Their music is very various. Already in their first records they used aside of the usual instruments (guitar, base, drums, vocals) mandolines, celli, violines, saxophones etc. On the first 3 albums (Schlachtplatte, Fischer, Gmües) there can be heard a lot of Swiss folk music impacts. On their fourth album Stella Nera they sang 2 songs in italian. On Trybguet there can be noticed a lot of spanish impacts in the music and the lyrics. However, there's missing the variety of instruments like on their older records. The latest albums were Liebi, Tod & Tüüfu (2005) and The Rimini Flashdown (2008).

Sie het schtändig durscht
Un ihre durscht dä löscht ke see
Sie isch jung

Sie seit jedem wo's wott ghöre
(Uh, uh, uh, uh-uh-uh)
Miss dolly bird die heisst ludmilla
Tanzt ei nacht z'burgdorf
Un eini z'langethal
Sie het e ring a jedem finger
Un e maa für jede ring
Zehn mal alt un wüescht un schlapp un blöd

The song "Ludmilla" by Patent Ochsner is a story about a young woman named Ludmilla. She is constantly thirsty and her thirst cannot be quenched even by the sea. She is described as being young, strong, and smart. Everyone who hears her speak is told that the sun is setting in the west. Ludmilla is a dancer who spends her nights in Burgdorf, and then in Langenthal, where she wears a ring on every finger and has a man for each ring. She is described as being old, dirty, tired, and stupid.
The song expresses a longing to escape the mundane and find freedom in beauty, reflected by the lines “I bi im wartsaau uf d wäut cho, mit dr nabuschnuer äng ume haus” (“I came to the world in a waiting room, with a nosebleed on my bed.”). The song tells the story of someone who is looking for a way to escape the monotony of their daily life and finds refuge in transcendent beauty. The song’s story is wrapped up in Ludmilla, who is seemingly trapped by her own life of endless thirst.
Overall, the song "Ludmilla" is a lament for the unquenchable thirst that exists within us all, and our longing to break free from the mundane and embrace the beauty of the world around us.
