RIP Conrad Schnitzler.

R I P Conrad.

Yes, these guys were doing this amazing music years before Eno, Bowie, but let us not forget Pierre Schaeffer, Steve Reich, and many others, from the late 50's. Also Raymond Scott!

[dwemmy]

Who gave them the money for all that gear?

[needstoregister]

Kluster ffffffffffff...

[xmfdibujito]

Very humble legend musicians.

brillant

[hawkwind90]

these guys taught eno everything i wish he would stop getting the credit for everything ambient

[stalkek]

@hawkwind90 Just parochialism of the English speaking world.

[BlimGlim]

@hawkwind90 Yes, his mate, David Bowie, always gives credit to the German scene. Eno just relabelled other peoples music, then shamelessly gave him self credit for the music. He should be relabelled: Brian Ego.

[dronespace]

Brilliant, love this music.

[quintincollins]

Anyone have clips from 'Kluster: 1970-1971'?

[damage5f6a]

i suppose these guys were building their own gear? nothing looks familiar

[SpaceRitual]

Yeah, wow, read the description people. Cluster w/Conrad Schnitzler (aka original lineup) was named Kluster.

[smkelly1970]

the band at this point was Cluster with a C! The lp jackets they are showing in the 1st minute or so of this video "Cluster '71", "Cluster 2", (1972) are the 1st 2 lps by Deiter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius The red cover seen after the 1 minute mark is "Zwei-Osterei", the 1970 release by Kluster, which was Konrad Schnitzler (played on Tangerine Dream's "Electronic Meditation" lp) with Moebius and Roedelius.

"15:33" is from the debut "Cluster 71" lp on the Phillips label.

[cholocharile]

[autosuggestionband]

@leFterhs2000 Depends on the album/line-up; see the blurb on this video.

[leFterhs2000]

[tangosatan]

[synoneiro]

This is the first track "15:33" on the first album by Cluster (with a C), Cluster '71.

[lunerticwolfmancycle]

[bardobound]

talk about vintage gear... some of that stuff looks like it runs on steam power...  but it was cutting edge at the time.

[slimtimslide]

Cluster kommt von himmel aber NEU! und Harmonia ist alzo sehr gut! haben sie gefahren nach Dusseldorf? Es ist eine scheissehausse! Ich komt von Cheeseburg - ich bin ein cheeseburger... guten abend und auf weuder sehen. (Harmonia 74.... das ist himmel!!!)

[nifffs]

Es kann sein dass du ein Cheeseburger bist, aber Deutsch sprichst du jeden falls nicht.

[Bizarronumber4]

Is the music from one of the albums they recorded as Kluster. Which one,btw?

[humanoidboogie]

The track playing in the background is (as it says in the clip) '15:33' from the LP 'Cluster' (or 'Cluster 71' as the reissue was called).

[Byggavdelningen]

why did they change Kluster to Cluster..

[PathToDivinity]

one of the members left, so they decided to change the name.

[thackmasterplus]

why does none of us speak german?

[Detroit1967]

Scheinbar ist die Gruppe im befreundeten Ausland beliebter als in Deutschland.

[angrysamoan666]

Non of us speak german because it is a difficult language to master

English is good for speaking quite simply, because the english are now used to hearing their own language spoken quite poorly

For me its a shame, but communication is more important and most my frends speak english then they know what the other say

[sofachiller]

@thackmasterplus because americans blend into the 2.thWW

[JazzyFunkaHolic]

@thackmasterplus I'm german :) Krautrock Spirit!

[robzitinho]
