..and when even braver - you'd might enjoy Cluster 71. Thellama is right - it's a fantastic album - but still, I think I like Klopfzeichen (Kluster 1969) the most. The religious/political (naive socialism mixed with mysterious semi-religious aspects) spoken words on side one are actually great, despite Schnitzler's sentiments "If you don't understand the German words, it sounds better. [...] If you know what it means, you'll find it terrible." The sloooow echoing of primitive electronics and rough production and the mysterious text makes this my favourite K(c)luster album - but they are all great!  Anyway, - not to neglect the folksy side of Krautrock - let's have a walk in the park with Emtidi!  Emtidi - Saat (1972) It doesn't get much better - fantastic cosmic production by "den fantastischen Mann am Mischpult" Dieter Dirks - multi-tracked guitars, phased keys and trippy electronics - a beautiful cosmic trek. |

After a long day of work and school, I feel the urge for some major relaxation. How does one relax? Well, let's just say my way of relaxation is the California way
 . Next, I look for a chill album to relax too. I usually turn to CAN's Future Days when I'm looking for that chill mood. But tonight... I think it's Brainticket. This is to the long days at work!Radagacuca |

thellama,
I have not heard Cluster 71 yet, so I'm jealous. I do love Zuckerzeit, and sometimes when I'm brave enough I'll put on Cluster II. |

Thank you AtomicCrimsonRush! Was going to put up the Krautrock documentary but was having problems loading videos onto the page
 . But yes, for those that want to know a little more about Krautrock, and some history behind the scene, I highly recommend that Krautrock Documentary! The Trip video was really a trip... |

I just bought Cluster 71, which I don't know if this site considers Krautrock, but I do. It is incredibly good.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Thanks for bringing up this page! As a small boy, who rather should have been in bed than out on the streets, I attended my first concert ever in the Quartier Latin, Berlin, listening to an astounding band coming up on stage with the words: Wir heissen KRAAN und fangen jetzt AAN!

I plead guilty for ignoring Faust too much, only got 3 albums, need to put some time in that band. Und yetzt, Mani und zwei Freunde! And one of my favs in their early years, Amon Düül II |
