“The members of ZONE SIX have one intention – to play improvised music… Recommended to fans of trippy, psych and kraut improvised rock music.”
Liquid Visions – Endless Plasmatic Childhood Overdose (2000)
“3 extended live recorded psychedelic space rock jams from Berlin based band featuring ex-members of Growing Seeds and Weltraumstaunen. Contains a version of Hawkwinds Masters of the universe”
Live Experience Band – Tribute to Jimi Hendrix (1971)
Tribute to Jimi Hendrix by Peet Shaw and his Live Experience Band in form of noisy acid jams. Wah-wah freak out!
Chicken Bones – Hardrock in Concert (1975)
“The title of Chicken Bones’ album Hardrock In Concert (1975) says it all! There are six “very hard rocking tracks” included therein, performed in the good old tradition of the early seventies heavy progressive scene. Most of the album is instrumental.”
Agitation Free – Malesch (1972)
“A classic of the German space genre. Their current music is a combination of Progressive Rock and New Instrumental Music, with touches of Jazz and passages dedicated to an experimentation near to Ambient. Their originality was due to the blend electronic and repetitive musics with a lot of ethnic elements from North Africa, India, etc. Very much like your early ASH RA TEMPEL, GURU GURU type bands except with a cultural influence.”
Can – Music (Live 1971-1977) (1999)
“The album contains several tracks created through instantaneous free improvisation that did thus not appear on any of Can’s studio albums.”
Pyramid – Pyramid (1976)
“German acid rock project. The obscure and underrated “Dawn Defender” from 1976 is constantly mysterious, abstract and experimental, delivering interlocking electronic soundscapes punctuated by electric guitar manipulations and echoing effects. The album was originally released Tony Robinson for Pyramid label. A serious “kosmische” krautrock manifestation, a perfect & strange dreamy-like musical journey throw ultra psych textures. Pretty closed to the Cosmic Jokers (first) and A.R & the machines.”
Golem – Orion Awakes (1973)
“An obscure instrumental Krautrock band from the 70s. Ecclectic, psychedelic epic rock with lot of Hammond organs, heavy drums and jamming guitars. Their album Orion Awakes (1973) belongs to Pyramid Records archives. Amazing, catchy improvised free spacey rockin’ trip that can reminds the best efforts delivered by early Pink Floyd, Gila, Dies Irae, Jane.”
Gila – Gila (1971)
“Instrumental improv spacerock extravaganza that can stand proudly alongside better-known works by Ash Ra Tempel, Pink Floyd or Amon Düül II… Gila could jam out the blues with the best of them, but they never found the success that eluded them.”
Swamp Sessions – Swamp Sessions Vol. 1 (2006)
Side-project from members of Colour Haze. Colour Haze fans will definitely appreciate this album. This is even more experimental, long improvised music played in altered state of mind.
