Blondes are Zach Steinman and Sam Haar with current home base in Brooklyn. The duo met in 2003 at Oberlin College in Ohio and started experimenting. Their first influences were post-punk bands like Gang of Four and Television but their musical taste evolved through disco, kraut-rock, 80's electronic music and deep love of Manuel Göttsching's "E2-E4" album. After graduation the duo split up and regrouped in Berlin, where formed Blondes. In 2010 released their first EP Touched on Merok, they played in MoMA (played again on Jan. 2012) and remixed Rihanna's "Rude Boy". In 2011 RVNG [...]

El guitarrista alemán de Manuel Göttsching (Ash Ra Tempel entre otras muchas formaciones) venía de una gira junto a su amigo Klaus Schulze, un 12 de diciembre de 1981, un sábado por la noche, y al llegar a su casa se encerró en el estudio, y con una caja de ritmos, algunos sintetizadores y una línea de guitarra (en a 2ª cara del disco) creo esta maravillosa composición continua de 59:20 minutos, una creación a modo personal, que estaba muy adelantada a su tiempo, y cuando la escucho su amigo Schulze, le convenció para [...]

In 1984, Manuel Göttsching released E2-E4 , an avant garde electronic composition that helped shape the sound of modern dance music. Continuing to experiment with synthesizers as he had with his previous band, Ash Ra Temple , Göttsching created a seamless ambient masterpiece where the interest all lies in the minute details. Many of the subtle rhythm changes and droning synth loops would later be heard in genres like Detroit Techno and Progressive Trance. In many ways, E2-E4 owes a lot to Mike Oldfield 's progressive rock album, [...]
INNOVATIVE COMMUNICATION, 1981 // LP / BUY I'm a huge fan of Klaus Schulze and the whole Berlin school of electronics type of sound. I've been collecting records from that era for years and this LP is definitely in my top 5. Released in 1981 on Schulze's own Innovative Communication imprint, Tonwelle is the second full lenght album of his 'Wahnfried' project. The LP offers only two long running tracks, with each one clocking at approx. 18 minutes. The A side, "Schwung," fuses [...]
Teenage Panzerkorps are more than revivalists in the songwriting sense. Their sounds recall the kraut-rock of Can and Neu! with a cutting-edge lo-fi allure, vast and tributary enough to appear like a fusion of albums one obtained through trading cassette tapes in the '80s. If you were a punk enthusiast born in the late '60s/early [...]
It's nice to see that I'm still capable of stirring debate with my enlightened blog posts. Yesterday's claim that Amoeba does not sell 2,000 vinyl records a day appears to have struck a nerve, as several people have reported that statistic to be true. Unfortunately for Amoeba's ardent supporters, the numbers don't appear to be in their favor. Last year's SoundScan report stated that 2.7 million vinyl LP/EPs were sold in the United States. And if Amoeba sells 2,000 a day, why, that would mean one store in Hollywood accounts for almost 30% of all vinyl sales. [...]
Excerpt taken from Julian Cope's Krautrocksampler : "The dissolution of Ash Ra Tempel proved too much for poor Hartmut Enke. Their former leader never got any other projects together and nothing would be heard of him afterwards. Meanwhile, the weekend acid raves at Stommeln continued in top gear, and the Dierks studio was an incessant orgified [Timothy] Leary-X-perience. With Brian Barritt and his partner Liz Elliott on full patrol, Ralph-Ulrich Kaiser and Gille Letmann put all their bands through their cosmic paces. Wallenstein were by now far better than their recent and ultra stodgy Mother Universe [...]
Woke up. Felt slightly chirpy. No, no I didn't. Not very chirpy at all. More like...sore. Steve and I rearranged and plotted the furniture in his bedroom, and decided it would be best to eat before tackling the living room. We drove to Berkley, and spent two hours walking around. The campus is unlike any other I've seen so far in my life. The town has a very Olympia, WA or Burlington, VT feel to it. Lots of street kids, tons of music shops, head shops, street vendors, and wild food options. Eggs were consumed at a local eatery, they [...]
