Album Notes & Community Reviews
Functioning essentially as the immediate precursor to Kraftwerk, this experimental ensemble featured the foundational partnership of Ralf H眉tter and Florian Schneider. Produced by Conny Plank, the solely acoustic and heavily percussive improvisations lack the mechanized synthesizers of their later work, offering a hypnotic, deeply organic artifact of early Kosmische Musik.
