The band's name was actually COZMIC CORRIDORS. They had tracks on
several of the "Unknown Deutschland" Krautrock compilations on Virgin,
all taken from their self-titled album, which was issued on Psi-Fi in 1996.

This appears to consist of unreleased archive tapes from the mid-
seventies, and musically offers minimalist, stripped-down electronic
Krautrock with some systemic and psychedelic elements. The album
allegedly received a vinyl issue at the time of recording, in a run of 50
copies, on the Pyramid label.

The label supposedly issued a number of other Krautrock obscurities, all
in tiny runs, including GOLEM and TEMPLE (whose Pauline Fund was also a
member of COZMIC CORRIDORS). The provenance of the Pyramid label
seems suspect, however, since none of its releases has ever resurfaced on
a collectors' list.

One school of thought said all the "Pyramid" recordings, reissued on
Virgin and Psi-Fi, were an elaborate joke, put together in the mid-nineties
to cash in on the then-Krautrock boom. However, since they were
recorded by Toby Robinson (an active sound engineer in Germany in the
seventies) and featured real Krautrock musicians like Zeus B Held and
Hans-Jürgen Pütz, they probably were recorded in the seventies.

However, I suspect they were actually unissued at the time, with the
Pyramid label being an invention to stir up interest in the "reissues".
