Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as an enigmatic side project for Klaus Schulze, 'Time Actor' explores a fascinating intersection of classic Berlin School sequencing and unconventional vocal experimentation. The album features surreal, rhythmic spoken word contributions from Arthur Brown, resulting in a distinctly bizarre, highly theatrical variant of the era's cosmic synthesizer music. It showcases Schulze's continued drive to push his electronic compositions into weird, avant-garde territory.
