Description
Soul Jazz Records� new Deutsche Electronische Musik 2 is their second voyage into the world of Krautrock and German electronic music from the 1970s and early 1980s. Check!!As well as the original pioneers, Deutsche Electronische Musik 2 also features many of the second wave of German electronic artists and groups from the late 70s and early 80s (DAF, Asmus Tietchens, Rolf Trostel) who successfully connected new wave, minimal synth and a European post-punk avant-gardism with the earlier more established Krautrock pioneers who began at the start of the 70s.
German Rock and experimental electronic music originally grew out of the worldwide counter-cultural revolution of 1968, as German artists created a new music, �free� from the past. From the opening of the first collective/cooperative, Commune 1, in Berlin, to the formation of the Baader-Meinhof terrorist group, young Germans sought out new values and a lifestyle outside of �the system�. These cooperative and communal experiences led to a number of new radical collective German bands forming such as Amon Duul, Faust, Can and others and these ideals drove this new musical movement.
Influenced as much by the electronic experimentalism of Stockhausen, as the progressive rock of USA and UK underground rock, young German artists seamlessly created a new music with its own unique identity, which they ironically entitled Krautrock. By the end of the 1970s, with the arrival of new wave synthetics and complex drum machines this music had mutated once again into new electronic visions reflecting a new Germany.
The vinyl edition comes as limited-edition two volumes of heavyweight vinyl, super-loud, gatefold sleeve double-albums featuring all sleevenotes and text.
