Klaus Netzle & Raven Kane - Silicon Valley (LP)
Erdenklang 6.25762, 1984 Germany That I have only discovered this masterpiece now is a mystery. An album release by the man of many names, Klaus Netzle, with a microchip, computer and a glass of red wine on the cover, it must have something unique on...

Erdenklang IRS 942.161, 1986 Germany Strong line up here with Kristian Schulze, Jade Warrior and many other ambient heads recording for German electronics label Erdenklang. Record is a lot more 'upbeat' than you would guess at first sight. Overall a reco...

Gerd Bessler - Under The Flying Violin (LP)

Jakino's 7th World - Ocean Alpha (LP)
Erdenklang IRS 942164, 1987 Germany Not an easy find on vinyl, this Japanese ambient electro masterpiece is a highly recommended pick. Musically it moves from oriental meditative sounds to upbeat synth. Another Erdenklang must hear release. Unplayed copy!

Yellow Magic Orchestra - YMO (LP)
A&M AMLH 68506, 1979 Netherlands Essential debut release by Sakamoto, Takahashi and Hosono. It is a little hard not to like guys who manage to mix any teenage boy's dream of Firecrackers and Computer Games into one monster electro tune. Strong VG+ co...

SFF - Ticket To Everywhere (LP)
Brain 0060.173, 1979 Germany Back in stock! In demand kraut album in a strong electronic vein a bit similar to Eroc or To Be also released on Brain. My highlights are the cosmic sound of the dancefloor favorite Song From India and and the down te...

Pedal Point - Dona Nobis Pacem (LP)
CBS 88531, 1981 Netherlands Surprised this one has not got more attention. Double album with lots of producer friendly drums, bass, vocals, strings. Kind of mix between classics, jazz and rock but without wanting to settle in either camp. Good a...

Eberhard Schoener - Events (LP)
Harvest, 1980 Germany Underrated affair by electronics mastermind Schoener. Fairlight 80 and Gam Bang stand out here but plenty of useful elements throughout for an experimental mix or production. Solid drum work on this entire album.

Eberhard Schoener System - ESS (LP)
Mercury 826 147-1Q, 1985 Germany May not be the best Eberhard Schöner release but skip to very last track on this album, Die Zwei Gesichter Des Januar, for a lovely ambient track. Rest of the album are covers of Beatles, Stones etc.

Deuter - San (LP)
Kuckuck 11084-1, 1985 Germany Together with the experimental debut release D and the rare Soundtrack this is among the best Deuter albums. Ambient and meditative at times, futuristic, cold and cosmic at others. Perfect copy.

Moog Machine - Switched-On Rock (LP)
Columbia CS 9921, 1969 United States Moog madness here with covers of some of the biggest rock anthems. The moog just is a killer instrument if you are into the psychedelic soundscape. The track Aquarius was flipped by the mighty Beastie Boys on Get It T...
