A few weeks ago I created a best of German music playlist on Spotify for a friend in the US who likes to learn the language via music. I had so much fun putting it together xD
Thought I could share it here too :comfymusic:

Started recording a new version of "Konsum"
😁 And I filmed myself while recording the synths. That's so funny 😜 All those crazy movements and focus. 👌 I guess I'll do that more often!
This is vers 1 for now.

I wrote this song when I was 18. More than 15 years ago. Why is this still a thing? Are we stupid? Are the rich and wealthy (companies) too greedy?
I think (global) political dynamics and human psyche is just too complex and too slow to deal with the fact of #climatechangeisreal

For any lover of dark folk, neofolk, gothic folk or just a real nice tune, this compilation of "Neue Deutsche Folksmusik" is highly recommended.

Songs from some personal favourites, like Art Abscon and Nebelwanderin. 27 tracks, pay what you like.

New on the blog: I had a great conversation with Ströme, a German electronic music duo who are super-passionate about modular synthesis and vintage gear. There's a ton of gear talk and we spoke *a lot* about how they got ahold of the first Moog to cross into the German border in the late '60s — the same one heard on "I Feel Love." Enjoy! → https://8sided.blog/strome-back-in-the-future/

Bergfest! So langsam bin ich wieder reif für die Insel... alternativ nehm ich auch ein langes Wochenende auf dem Land. Rainald Grebe zeichnet in "Auf's Land" ja ein verlockendes Bild von Landleben... 🤔

Aus Gründen wurde mir vorhin ein NDW-Artefakt mit Joseph Beuys am Mikrofon in die Tube gespült. Unmöglich, dieses strahlende Kleinod deutschsprachiger Musikkultur nicht zu teilen 😇

Great Albums 1970s Krautrock

I am unaware of how much you are holding in reserve, and apologize if I'm jumping the gun, but:

"Neu!" by Neu (1971)

I will follow you because I am very interested in what your "best Kraftwerk" is. I fully expect that our opinions will differ …

As far as innovation goes, #German bands took the cake in the #1970s, either inventing or developing electronica, ambient space rock, and early metal. It all sounded entirely neu (!) – or at least put a spin on things you wouldn’t imagine elsewhere. Below/ tagged are six cool and vastly different albums by some of Germany’s best.
#GreatAlbums1970s, #MastodonMusic, #Albums, #Vinyl, #GermanMusic

Great Albums - 1970s: #PopolVuh – #HosiannaMantra (1972). Led by keys man Florian Fricke, this band took the opposite path of Kraftwerk et. Al. by starting on synthesizers and, by this LP, switching to organic instruments, such as the grand piano that figures prominently here. Ambient, cerebral, and cinematic (they later scored for Werner Herzog), this LP blends quasi-classical gestures with pop – and textures like early worldbeat. #GreatAlbums1970s, #MastodonMusic, #Albums, #Vinyl, #GermanMusic

Great Albums - 1970s: #AmonDuulII – #Yeti (1970). An early volley for so-called “krautrock,” Amon Düül II sounds like Jefferson Airplane brawling with The Velvet Underground on a rocket to Venus. Renata Knaup’s voice weaves and wails, as hell-to-pay violin, skullduggery guitars, and Dave Anderson’s Jack Cassidean bass fight the planets. Tracks like “Archangel Thunderbird” and “Eye Shaking King” will scare you out of your cubicle. #GreatAlbums1970s, #MastodonMusic, #Albums, #Vinyl, #GermanMusic

Great Albums - 1970s: #Lucifer’sFriend – S/T (1970). Sabbath wasn’t the only doomy early metal outfit trying to scare your mom in 1970. This Hamburg band, fronted by UK singer John Lawton, pummeled riffs like a runaway steamroller, with growling organ like the proggier early Deep Purple. “Keep Goin’” is one of several blazing cuts—heavy and dramatic in fine measure. The LP is hard to find, but a diligent YouTuber has posted it.
#GreatAlbums1970s, #MastodonMusic, #Albums, #Metal, #GermanMusic

Great Albums - 1970s: #Kraftwerk – The Man-Machine (1978). I’m saving my best Kraftwerk for later, but Die Mensch-Maschine is classic kling klang synthpop, some of the most absorbed and sampled music of the 1970s. “The Robots” does the post-humanist boogie. “Spacelab” and “Metropolis” thrill the cosmic discotheque. “The Model” and “Neon Lights” have human vocals, but in the fine tradition of Hal 9000, the machines sound friendlier.
#GreatAlbums1970s, #MastodonMusic, #Albums, #EDM, #GermanMusic

Great Albums - 1970s: #Can – #FutureDays (1973). Once they stopped trying to be a rock band, Can grew altogether more interesting and even accessible – finding a cooler place between Popol Vuh’s organic ambient and Pink Floyd’s cinematic space boogie. The cop show dramatics on “Spray” evoke a dreamworld car chase, and “Moonshake” sounds like Funkadelic channeled through Mork from Ork. Vocalizer Damo Suzuki gives his last hurrah.
