Bob Kindler - Music From The Matrix I (1982)



String and Wind instruments controlling Synthesizers and un-plugged.

Stephen Winfield - Forest Flower (1984) Vinyl




This is one of the rarest records that exist. I have waited years to find the tape edition with no hope or indication
this was ever released on vinyl. Years later this was for sale on eBay. To this day no other copy ever showed up and it
remains among other pressings on Sona Gaia (X-1##) and the Narada Productions Series (X-8###) which are worthy parts of
a decent collection of new age music and other spaced out sounds.

The performance on it is a blend of laid-back futurist jazz influenced soundscaping. But never too smooth to loose the
attention of the discerned listener since there are many parts and arrangements that express a high level of progressive
density without accentuated use of electronics or percussion. A recording that fascinates at every listen.

Paul Michael - Inner Suite (1984)



New age minimalism which is a must have for anyone who likes artists like Steve Reich, Popol vuh, Tibetan Bells,
Allaudin Mathieu, Terry Riley, DeLa Sierra. Solo piano, long experimental pieces.

Ric Kaestner - Music For Massage I & II (1982)





A masterpiece tape album from obscure early narada subdivision Antiquity Records. Warm minimalist synth drones,
sound effects, bamboo flute, prepared piano on a 60-minute medidative and psychedelic journey. Similar to early
Steve Roach or Hiroshi Yoshimura.

Iasos - Crystal Love (1979)



Iasos - Crystal Love (1979)

Another great Work by Iasos.

A very special treat deserves track B. Its one of the few and most powerful achievments in music
linked to topics like "Heimatliebe" in the german language, a spiritual bond towards earth in a
sense of nativity (eg Indian spiritualism), the highest form of love beyond the low-level energy
form of emotion in a high grade state of pure knowledge and wisdom. The music allows you, in a
way of mantra like repetation in your mind, even when you are not actually listening to it, to
channel into this field of sub-conscious memory.

"Oh, How Deeply Do I Love You"

Iasos - Angelic Music Vinyl LP (1975/78)



Iasos - Angelic Music Vinyl LP(1975/78)

THE DEFINITIVE MILESTONE of electronic ambient, drone, trance music. Taking a large step, leaving all previous behind, never surpassed.

No words more needed to describe this masterpiece. Iasos himself said once, that he had a vision from another, highly vibrational reality
which has helped to inspire his music. Not believing in this esoteric approach? No need! Hear for yourself! This trip, underground to our
days, opened the gate to all futuristic music that came afterwards (e.g. Dark Ambient, IDM, Drone, Trance etc.)

Tom Toelle - Das Millionenspiel (1970)




This Day it's time to share on of the most disturbing films ever made.
Unavaiability both on the Net as well as the classic hardware (Video/DVD)
urge to share this with others.
Based on a short story by Robert Sheckley "The Prize of Peril" this is Media criticism at it's highest level.
A haunting dystopia is unfolding in this Thriller, where the Media has become

This film features german Dieter Thomas Heck in an unplayed role as showmaster,
as well as comedian Dieter Hallervorden as ruthless killer.
Soundtrack by krautrock fame Can.
HQ-TV Capture, German, no subs.
