VINYL DEUTSCHE ELEKTRONISCHE 4 [VINYL]

Popis - DEUTSCHE ELEKTRONISCHE 4 [VINYL]:
This is the fourth instalment of Soul Jazz Records' ground-breaking Deutsche Elektronische Musik series, 'a near-definitive guide to some of the world's most extraordinary music' (The Guardian). This release features many of the classic German electronic and Krautrock groups from the 1970s and '80s, including Can, Amon Düül II, Harmonia, Conrad Schnitzler, Agitation Free, Roedelius, as well as a host of lesser known artists such as Dzyan, Klaus Weiss, Gruppe Between and many more. Deutsche Elektronische rarities unearthed on the album include Kalacakra (whose fan-base included the great Moondog!) and their superb 'Nearby Shiras,' taken from their super-rare spiritual/psychedelic private press concept album 'Crawling To Lhasa' from 1972. The album also includes a wealth of German electronic experimental artists - the seminal pioneering group Harmonia (Roedelius, Moebius and Michael Rother), avant-garde guru Conrad Schnitzler as well as lesser known synthetic artists such as Klaus Weiss, Deutsche Wertarbeit, E.M.A.K. (Elektronische Musik Aus Köln), Günter Schickert and others. Finally, the album also features an array of heavy and progressive German cosmic rock groups - Dzyan, Virus and the amazing Turkish/German tripped out sound of Alex's 'Patella Black', recorded at Can's Inner Space in 1973, produced by Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit.
