“Space Debris are a German band whose music will transport you back 30 years to the pioneering days of Krautrock and Progressive influenced Psychedelia. Lots of lengthy stretch out guitar jams and an old time organ sound that will make you swoon. Influences range from Amon Düül and Can on the one hand to a psychedelicious take on the Santana, Allman Brothers, and early Deep Purple stylings. If you like early 70’s styled jamming hard prog-psych you’ll love this.”
“The Cosmic Dead is a new, amazing, experimental and cosmic psych/space/kraut/drone rock collective from Glasgow, Scotland. These guys have been playing together actively since early 2010 and their first actual album was released on tape in May. This really mind-blowing tape has four tracks and is 80 minutes long, so be prepared for long, trippy jams.”
“Squadra Omega is an Italian psychedelic free-form jam band that knows how to bend your ears. It is The Grateful Dead, Sun Ra and Coltrane all rolled together in one night of all joy and dread abandoned. This is some of the best free improvisation you will find in avant jazz and rock. There’s a lot of 70s jam rock influence but they interact and mix their influences together totally 21st century.”
A live rarity from the early days of Kraftwerk with Michael Rother and Klaus Dinger so basically we get mix of Kraftwerk and Neu! Whole album consisting of long distorted heavy krautrock jams with doom mood ala Black Sabbath.
“Collosal slabs of kraut-infused mono-chord space rock with heavily distorted and phased guitars, psych-glissando solos and deep delay theremin oscillations.”
“Known among local instrumental music lovers for a great deal of improvisation in their live shows, the concept behind the band is never make the same composition twice and try to do something different every time the trio get together… band tries to explore prog-rock territories while routing the map of late-60s and early-70s psychodelia by using decrepit vintage musical equipment… all recorded live-in-the-studio with no overdubs… This young band could easily turn into one of the greatest space-kraut-prog-psyche outfits you’ve probably never heard of.”
“CAVE exists primarily as a means of channeling different states of intoxication into a musical form. CAVE also dabbles in telepathic communication. CAVE believes in no things, just states. Inspiration is derived from the environment, both physical and psychological. CAVE would not exist if it was not necessary for CAVE to exist. CAVE is not interested in where you ended up, only how you got there. CAVE is rock.”
“Fuzzy/spacey guitar and bass sound. Recorded in big rooms with natural echo. Inspired by krautrock, noise, psychedelic, minimal rock. Mostly long jammy tracks.”
“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.”
“The album contains several tracks created through instantaneous free improvisation that did thus not appear on any of Can’s studio albums.”
