CLUSTER / Moebius & Roedelius solo & group recordings 1970-1986 poll

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Voted z.z. top.

real tough but had to go with Sowiesoso... if for nothing other than nostalgic reasons.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

I, for one, am outraged.

I kid: Sowiesoso is amazing.

props to whoever voted curiosum. underrated record.

that was me

bummed no one voted doppelschnitt. side two has treated me so well on road trips the last 20 years, people only catching up now. 'recorded in minimalstudio'

props to whoever voted cluster 71 o wait that was me

couldn't we break this down into a couple of polls? how did you guys figure out what to vote for

I voted for my favorite album

we could always do Roedelius

I would be very much down with that.

Dolby!

Roedelius always seems to put me into some kind of fever dream state. It's an interesting phenomenon.

Pretty excited to see the tracklist for the first 2 discs of that Plank box.

I am pretty excited for disc 4 of that Plank box

That too! Everything except disc 3 basically!

selbstporträts i & ii are so great

Was listening to stuff on random and "Legende" came up; what an incredible (and way too short!) piece that one was. are any of the later roedeliuses worth diving into?

the electronic arrangement of Legende, Alle Jahre Wieder, on Selbstportrait II is even better

all the Roedelius albums on this poll are pretty lovable, I think I mutter about some of the latterdays on the Roedelius thread

Every time Heise Lippen(Zuckerzeit) comes up on my random playlist, it makes me smile.
:)

thought i'd heard all the crucial roedelius stuff but only now just got around to this one. really his best of the solo piano works. apparently its a tribute to his mother

I bought that on iTunes -- there's something funky going on with that record. I can't tell if it's that the record is multitracked, edited together with loops or if he is using a long delay on his piano.

Moebius solo albums creep me out

For those of you who might be interested, I have posted the entire Kluster / Cluster / Harmonia / Roedelius discography here - along with the album reviews here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/stepheniliffe/sets/72157624709969408/

Best wishes, Stephen Iliffe (author of Painting with Sound - the life and music of Roedelius)

wow, very cool, thanks

Your Flickr account is a treasure trove, Stephen.

Loved your book, btw.

recently got the Bureau B reissue of 'Sowiesoso', which is the first CD edition to restore the first minute of the title track which has been missing from every digital edition since the 90's Sky one. It's so good to hear the long slow build all the way through again. They didn't finesse some of the crispy distortions out of some of the surges the way they did with the Water reissue, but I like it, the fry is supposed to be there, sounds like the original wafer-thin vinyl.

if your mp3 is 7:20 and not 8:11, totally worth rectifying

Oh that's great to know. My copy is still the old Gyroscope CD but that's an all time top 20 album for me.

full length version

Mind blown

does anyone know which month Zuckerzeit came out in 1974?
