very impresive.

I would be interesting to recreate the path that electronic music followed since its experimental first days to the pop-electronic bullsh*t that is so comon nowadays.

you are definitely right about "Ballet Statique", this album can be seen as a musical compromise between strong, challenging electronics and hypno-minimal electro pop.
 
all albums published for the "Block & art gallery" sound installations are absolutely recommended

great find phillipe, i will have to wait till i can get to a high speed connection to enjoy these vidoes, though. i have gold, blau, con 3 (more avant pop), and the famed (maybe even a tad overrated, but still great) ballet statique.

Here are some great retrospective videos about the legendary electronic pioneer Conrad Schnitzler. Schnitzler had begun making music under the "zodiak free art lab" and Kluster (with Moebius & Roedelius). The music provides totally unusual dark experimentations with narratives, amplified acoustic instruments, reverbs & echomachines. In solo he explored much more abstract psychedelectronics. He is the man who reached the progressive scene to a higher level (this is truly art for art), making intersections between contemporary avant garde and kraut-synths. His most recommended efforts are Gelb, Blau and Gold.
