About This Item
Klaus Schulze - La Vie Electronique Vol. 2 - Re-Launch of the successful series InchLa Vie ElectroniqueInch Vol. 1 to 16 by Klaus Schulze. / This second set contains pieces, which have been recorded between 1972 and 1975. Is it wrong if I state that Klaus was the first who dared to use noise (as in InchElectric Love-AffairInch a lot of noise and buzz) as stylistic device? The four tracks InchNightwindInch, InchMinuetInch, InchSigns of DawnInch, and InchLand der leeren HäuserInch are from a collaboration in the year 1973 between Klaus and a friend at this time, Hans-Jörg Stahlschmidt. These titles were played and recorded at 'delta acusticInch studio in 1973. The proposed group name for Klaus' and Hans-Jörgs collaboration changed between InchTauInch, InchTaoInch, and InchTimewindInch (!) Also, a deal with a German record company had already been made, but for reasons unknown today, the album never came out. The music sounds like early 'New Age', but of course this definition wasn't known then. Klaus very own keyboard playing style is already identifiable. Klaus mostly plays the organ, and both played also guitars and bass guitar. The whispering voice on InchSigns of DawnInch is Klaus. The singing voice on InchLand der leeren HäuserInch is not Klaus. The three shorter titles are the original titles as given on the tape box. In 1973, same more Inchavant-gardeInch music was done by Klaus, for the radio play InchDas Große ldentifikationsspiel (The Big Garne of ldentification)Inch, a Science-Fiction thriller by Alfred Behrens, it won the award InchPreis der Kriegsblinden DeutschlandsInch, and since then it has been regularly repeated on German radio. The tape box says InchBallett TitanenseeInch, and it dates from about 1973. Album Tracks 1. North of the Yukon 2. Nightwind 3. Minuet 4. Signs of Dawn 5. Study for Phillip K. Dick 1.
