Various - Krautrock Eruption - An Introduction To German Electronic Music 1970-1980 (Vinyl LP) PRE-ORDER

arrels and disputes surrounding the terms

"Krautrock" and "Kosmische Musik" are a testament to their enduring relevance and fascination. I won’t

get into the weeds discussing how to separate one from the other – for all those who do want to, the book

“Krautrock Eruption” by Wolfgang Seidel addresses some of those questions. In this book, you will find an

annotated discography of fifty albums. Out of these fifty, we are presenting an even narrower selection

of tracks from twelve albums on this compilation. Lists and compilation track listings inevitably see tracks

missing and being left out.  In our case, the compilation was produced in cooperation with the label

Bureau B and therefore has a partial focus on some of their back catalogue. That said, the list is meant to

inspire repeated or further listening, to spark discussions and – potentially – to provoke new lists, perhaps

your own! It’s all part of the fun. Music is made for enjoyment in the first and for friendly debate in the

second place, after all.
