Ash Ra Tempel
Along with Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel (later Ashra) was one of the first bands to convert the trippier side of late-'60s psychedelia into the kosmische rock of the '70s. Most Ash Ra titles were solely the work of Manuel Göttsching, plus any other additional players who happened to be around during the recording of his ten albums.

In Blue
When "In Blue" was released in 1995, many fans thought that this was the most typical Klaus Schulze record for a long time. They were probably right because Klaus did the songs a little bit with the fans in mind for whom the sounds of the previous album were too modern. In this respect "In Blue" is a more traditional Schulze record and, also, because it featured Manuel Goettsching on "Return Of The Tempel". However, he didn't plan this. Somehow it came to his mind to ask Manuel if he won"t feel …

Blackdance 2017 Remastered
*Released in Digipak. Includes a 16-page booklet.* Blackdance is one of Klaus Schulze's best albums. There are lots of predictors that point to where his career would go. The tempo changes are smooth and sure and the sequences are varied -- some are deep and strong, others are long on atmosphere. Schulze mixes these elements seamlessly with experimental timbres and spatial textures. He adds an organ drone to give the disc a Baroque attitude and sinister overtones. This is more atmospheric than m…

With "Big Moog" and Harald Grosskopf on drums: The cult album from 1976.
