Klaus Schulze - Sense

The fifty one minute 'Sense' from a show in 1976 is up next starting with the gentle swash of the sea and subtle electronics in a 'Mindphaser' kind of way. From here Schulze graduates to a single arpeggiated note sequence that echo's from the PA with a synth backdrop that wouldn't be used again until the following years 'Mirage' album. The way that Schulze builds up the synth textures seamlessly changing between synths is just amazing; it's true that back then there really was nobody that could get close to Schulze in the live performance arena. We get just the slightest hint of the 'Ways of Changes' sound from 'Blackdance' before the main sequence arrives. Again the sequencer build from Schulze is superb; it's absolute fluid genius at work; focused and flawless.
Grosskopf's drums have arrived in the mix and work their wicked way into events, the intensity of play growing along with developments from Klaus. It's eighteen minutes in before the soloing from Schulze kicks in, the drums just playing along in this section to help beef up the electronic rhythm. Things settle into a groove and solo's smoothly erupt from Schulze as the two musician's effortlessly play off one another perfectly. At the halfway mark things simmer down alittle as Klaus starts mucking around with modulation and mix of the synths and sequences, the drums holding off for awhile as Klaus decides what's coming next. The arpeggiations once again become more intense and the drums return with more gusto than before, Harald playing more freely in a jazz style similar to Schulze's own drumming. This section takes care of a further ten minutes prior to Klaus closing up for the night with a return to the opening atmospheres of the piece. Again it's a faultless performance played superbly with a real sense of conviction and purpose - and after fifty minutes the crowd want more!!!!

@ricadus I agree ..when I first heard it I was a bit aghast at the fade out ending..I was thinking ' We came all this way just to fade aaway ? ' It was one of my least favorite tracks and I never played it , it just seemed..incomplete . I was not altogether surprised when a complete version finally showed up..but very happy ...

@RichieFZ.

Thank you thank you thank you, for posting one of my all time KS favorites. I have the 1980 album but it is a shortened version of this to make it fit on a regular LP.
