Kaum Erdacht - Schon Mode
2024 Stock. 300 copies limited edition. Japan release only. ** The name of the duo Thorax-Wach, which was founded in 1980 together with Frank Dieckmann, comes from the context of the morgue in which Olaf Kraemer worked at the time. Between 1980 and 1981, with the help of two Korg M-20s and a microphone, a handful of MCs celebrated in the underground scene were created, as well as self-released vinyl records on their own label, Schnellschnitt, which the duo, which had since relocated from tranqui…

Further singles were released by the industry before they went their separate ways in the mid-eighties in the waning Neue Deutsche Welle without ever releasing the long-awaited debut album. To m…

Météorismes
Ramuntcho Matta offers us a new vision of his music and, by extension, of his world. Time for oneself and for others. Of the raw and the real. Most of the tracks were recorded with a dictaphone, so as to stay as close to the music as possible. It's a return to basics and simplicity that reveals a voice that is both dense and sub-tile, husky and sensual. Ramuntcho Matta keeps his finger on the pulse, the instant, the present.   Adopting the technique of the Japanese painters - observing before cr…

Zero Set
In 1983, Dieter Moebius (Cluster) and legendary producer Conny Plank teamed up for the third time, resulting in the Zero Set project, originally released on Sky Records. On this occasion, they were backed up by one of the best drummers on the German rock scene: Mani Neumeier of Guru Guru. Plank, usually more of a background figure as producer, takes an equal share of the limelight alongside the musicians. His supermodern studio is brought into play like an instrument in its own right; Plank expl…

Alkaline River
Composer and synth fantasist Ori Barel attempts to bash '90s electronica against dadist Krautrock and avant classical music on the ambitious 'Alkaline River'. Think Plaid jamming with Art Bears and Faust and you'll have a good line into this one. There's an admirable level of mayhem to 'Alkaline River' that we can't help but admire. Barel clearly has a lot of love for his influences, and his willingness to take music that's at polar ends of the genre spectrum and find its harmonies is already wo…

Silberland Vol 2 - The Driving Side Of Kosmische Musik 1974​-​1984
Welcome to Silberland – where the streets are paved with strobes. Home to neon lights, straight lines and open roads, this futurist fantasy was first founded in the mid-seventies, when Germany's creative class chose musical therapy in order to indulge their shared hallucination of a new Europe. Fuelled by the catalytic fusion of globalisation and new technology, the world was turning ever faster and the kosmische generation were ready to keep the pace. With synthesisers, rhythm computers and hu…
Gegenwelt
Gegenwelt (Parallel World) is the second LP by CEL, a duo Kubin and Zemler formed. More melodically-evolved than their eponymous 2020 debut, it is an even more explicit example of the syncretic impulse that impelled these guys to form the band. Their basic notion was to explore the juncture between two streams of German underground sounds -- the Motorik 4/4 rhythms first posited by Can's Jaki Liebezeit and Kraftwerk's Klaus Dinger, and the sequencer-driven brain loops of early, experimental pion…
