Important Here are the rules: 1. You choose a person (which is related to progressive rock) in your head. 2. Then everyone else asks questions about this unknown person (Only Yes/No questions are tolerated). Questions like: What instrument does he plays? or, What country he lives in? will not be tolerated. It would be too easy. 3. When someone has the right person, he will choose in his turn a person to guess. 4. Finally, you repeat all the rules from above. I have someone in mind. ------------- Poseidon wants to Acquire the Taste of the Fragile Lamb - Derek Adrian Gabriel Anderson, singer of the band Geneyesontle |

| Is he featured in the Krautrock subgenre? |
Posted By: thellama73
Date Posted: October 17 2012 at 21:07
|
Yes And while we're talking about it, why is Tony Conrad under Krautrick? I don't associate him with that genre at all. -------------
|
Posted By: Eria Tarka
Date Posted: October 17 2012 at 21:16
|
^Why is that? But, anyways is the person still alive?
|
Posted By: thellama73
Date Posted: October 17 2012 at 21:33

Because Conrad's music doesn't sound like Krautrock and he is not German. He is still alive. -------------
|
Posted By: Eria Tarka
Date Posted: October 17 2012 at 21:51

True, and I'm no expert on Krautrock but isn't most of the music on Dream Syndicate played by Faust. Manuel Göttsching?
|
Posted By: thellama73
Date Posted: October 17 2012 at 21:59
|
Oh yeah, that must be why. I haven't heard that album, I just know him from his work with John Cale and La Monte Youn. Minimalist violin drones. Not very Krauty. Anyway, Manuel Göttsching is right. That was not as difficult as I anticipated. -------------
