My own Zeuhl collection is very modest so far:


Magma  (F)  -  2:1001º Centigrades   (1971)

Magma  -  Üdü Wüdü  (1976)

Magma  - “Attahk”  (1978)

Eskaton  (F)  -  4 Visions  (1979, 1981) 

Bondage Fruit  (J)  -  II   (1996)

Xing Sa  (F)  -  Creation De L’univers  (2010)

Universal Totem Orchestra  (I)  -  Mathematical Mother  (2016)


But I'm sure some of you other guys have already made it much bigger! Big smile

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

My honest list of ten favorites goes like this:

Magma - Kobaïa
Magma - 1001° Centigrades
Magma - Ûdü Wüdü
Magma - Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kömmandöh
Magma   Kohntarkosz
Dun - Eros
Eskaton - 4 Visions
Archaia - s/t
Eider Stellare - s/t
Shub Niggurath - the self titled 1985-release

...the top five: but is it really Zeuhl though?

Guapo - Five Suns
Vortex - Cycle de Thantaos
Rahmann - St
Zao - Shekina
Laurent Thibault  - Mais on ne peut pas rêver tout le temps

There's tons more Zeuhl and related I really enjoy/enjoyed, but these are the ones I actually still play every once in a while (plus more or less the rest of Magma discography and a few more albums by Zao and Guapo)

Also love Rhesus O and Kultivator

I should have certainly included Guapo - 5 Suns, in fact I'm going to edit it in right now!

I added these at the very end of my post as I considered the Zeuhl relation to be very thin. Almost as a sales pitch.
 
-But regarding Rhesus O: Upon relistening, as I type, I think their only album is very much the sound of Zeuhl anno 1971. Magma was still very much a jazzensemble (although uniquely themselves) on their two first albums, and this should please anyone into Kobaïa and 1001° Centigrades. Considering how overlooked it is, I'll add a: Warmly reccomended!

Kultivator is basically swedish canterbury/progfolk with the occational zeuhl bass and keyboard twist - which is awesome.

Inspired by this thread I'm relistening to my Abus Dangereux - Le Quatrieme Mouvement. What an absolute gem! I think I'm gonna have to give my whole zeuhl-collection a spin. The sort of unplayed part of it. Zeuhl-fusion is what I crave for these days.
