2008-06-16 10:24:00 by mahood in Tonton Mahood
...krautrock band For krautrock beginners who listen to CAN or NEU and consider their music as the only true krautrock style, this extraordinary psych out album may be hard to accept. "Yeti" is more than 1 hour of a tremendous adventure in music, plenty of effects, electric and organic sounds, craziness in the instruments and voices. There is...

...krautrock"; maybe because more than american or english bands, german bands from the 70s could play a music with no boundaries, influenced by their travels (for real or in dreams), their (often) high technical skills, maybe because they probably had a major conflict against the previous generation (don't forget their parents had potentially...

2007-12-01 22:22:00 by nasti in Progressive Rock
Krautrock refers to the legions of German bands of the early '70s that expanded the sonic possibilities of art and progressive rock. Instead of following in the direction of their British and American counterparts, who were moving toward jazz and classical-based compositions and concept albums, the German bands became more mechanical and...

...Krautrock Top 10 albums, a very weird and spacey one. I've probably posted it last year, but once again won't be too much. If you're into early Ash Ra Tempel / Popol Vuh, it's obviously for you From Julian Cope's website Another obscure release from Shulze's little stable of cosmic electro-acoustic troubadours and a fine one at that. Taking...

KRAUTROCK TOP#3 : ASH RA TEMPEL & TIMOTHY LEARY, Seven Up (1973)

The Article has images
2008-06-16 10:49:00 by mahood in Tonton Mahood
...krautrock selections. Divided in 2 very different sides, its B-side alone would have been #1, it's the best krautrock track in my opinion, a very moving space rock suite, peacefull and full of melancolia. The A-side is a curious variation around blues themes, but, whereas I don't like blues, thanks to their craziness and effects (plenty of...

KRAUTROCK TOP#15 : CAN, Future Days (1973)

The Article has images
2008-06-23 10:22:00 by mahood in Tonton Mahood
...krautrock, but certainly not my favourite. I even confess I don't understand why their "Tago Mago" is considered such a classic album, in my opinion it's probably their most experimental but their weakest too - is there anyone able to listen to it entirely at once?? But what is interesting with CAN is that they are one of the very few bands...

...krautrock fanatics, as NEKTAR is more or less a progressive rock band I don't know much about prog rock but NEKTAR obviously from their debut ave composed their albums as long suite more than short pop-rock tracks. This "Journey" is an often surprising album, full of weird and cosmic sounds, with plenty of gorgeous and sometimes poignant...
