Now he lives in the land of eternal meditation - thank you for your adventures, which were essential for some of the most interesting modes of contemporary music.

I've yet to listen to anything (solo) besides Ballet Statique, but I think he could be subject to brilliance.

What is happening with all these deaths? Damn.... He was one of the early pioneers of electronic music, and maybe say in a hundred years time, I bet he´ll be remembered as the same. 
I´m going to put on Rot, Grün and Blau in that order.

Oh, God... I visited his web page today... and there was written "The End, Best, Con". nothing else. I thought it was just some conceptual joke... How could I not suspect anything...

I'm very sad now.

Rest In Peace, grandpa Conrad, you will stay in our Electric hearts forever!

    Never knew the man, your heart has to go out to his family. Let us all remember that........
        
   And it is appointed onto man once to die, and after this the judgment....Hebrews 9:27

   Your hope is that He knew Jesus Christ as His Saviour before his death.....
                                         It
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. Phillipians 2:11
