 | Description: | After the tremendous success of the four-volume edition 'KRAUT! The innovative years of Krautrock 1968 -1979' on
Bear Family Records, it was obvious to also honor progressive music from the former GDR for the first time in a
similarly elaborately designed, two-part CD edition!
While the first volume covers the history of progressive rock music in the GDR between 1970 and 1975, the second part
deals with the period from 1976 to 1982.
The second half of the 1970s and the early 1980s see the AMIGA concept albums of the Stern-Combo Meissen
('WeiÃ?es Gold', 'Reise zum Mittelpunkt des Menschen'), electra's one-and-a-half LP side-filling homage to the
Sixtinische Madonna, the fifteen-minute art and jazz rock synthesis Meeresfahrt by LIFT and, of course, City's mega hit
Am Fenster, which also stormed the charts in Western Germany and Greece, among other places.
Certainly inspired by the legendary Tangerine Dream show at the Palast der Republik in 1980 and its release on an
AMIGA LP, a new genre of music developed, which in the GDR was labeled 'electronics' by the media. This meant
instrumental tracks that were composed and performed - using exclusively electronic instruments - mostly by a single
artist. Often the concepts of these (mostly overlong) compositions were created during months of tinkering in private and
home studios of musicians, which became more and more established - much to the suspicion of the monopolists radio
and records. In 1982, AMIGA released Reinhard Lakomy's 'Das geheime Leben', the first 'electronics' LP, followed by
others in the years that followed.
The spillover of the New German Wave into the GDR (labeled there as 'New Dance Music') led to stylistic uncertainty
and hectic lineup changes for many formerly progressive bands starting in 1982. - .. VOL.2 / 76PGS BOOKLET / 1976-1982OST-KRAUT: A two-volume double CD series - the long overdue complement to our KRAUT! Edition - comprehensively documents the history of progressive rock in the GDR for the first time with studio and live recordings!PLEASE NOTE: liner notes in German Progressive rock from the German Democratic Republic! Never before has the GDR scene been so extensively honored with studio and live recordings |  | Manufacturer No.: |
