Terrible news. A tremendous artist. Condolences to family and friends.

I thankfully have a friend who provided me with a bunch of Klaus's music. Not go-to stuff at the moment, but his passing prompts me to give it another listen. RIP.

This really shatters me. Tonight will be a Klaus memorial day at my place (probably will last 3 days for the sheer quantity...)

Hi,

I wish I had something to say, and will ... more than likely ... later on an issue of poetry for various folks in music for the Ygdrasil Journal of Poetic Arts.

For now, though, RIP Klaus, you will be missed.

Sad to say that when I heard that one cut from the new album, and the title of the album, the first thing I thought of was ... it will be his last album! ... and sadly, the person that probably appreciate the famous DUNE novels never had his music associated with it, and it deserved to be there, as was originally thought of with a Jodorowski project that was killed.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Yes, I saw the news yesterday posted on FB by Mortiis. One artist paying tribute to another one who influenced him...
I like Schulze's early releases (first two) the most.

Thanks for the music Klaus and the countless of hours driftig away and into your beautiful universe. It has helped me tremendously over the last couple of years dealing with a broken body.
It’s so weird that I haven’t listened to him for months though…but started putting on some of his albums during these past few days…and then this. I think I’ll throw on Body Love when I get home.
Magic is is short supply these days. Klaus had a way with it that I will continue to dive into whenever the world turns into bureaucracy and cement.
All the love from Denmark. Cheers monsieur Schulze

Really sorry to hear that, in many ways he was progressive electronic.

Well damn. Perhaps he went all too soon but he sure left several lifetimes worth of music to check out.

I've only just begun having only checked out the 70s and early 80s releases.

A true legend if there ever was one.

Now he's in the ethers where his music came from in the first place!

Sorry to hear about this. I haven't listened to my KS albums in a while, but I'll definitely be spinning a few tomorrow. RIP Klaus Schulze.

Another major loss rocks the world of electronic music as one of the greatest progenitors of Berlin School leaves us.

Klaus kept our ears busy right up to the end, and he will continue to do so.

RIP.

WOW ! Stunned to hear this very sad news.
Even though he was apparently ill, I sometimes forget how old many of these prog heroes are.
RIP man.
Thank you for supporting independently produced music

Not the easiest music to listen to, but so influential and important. Speaking as an amateur synthesist type.
