Space Requiem - A Tribute to Klaus Schulze

  Klaus Schulze 1947 - 2022 Klaus Schulze, considered to be a godfather figure in electronic music, died this week. I'd say he was one of the big four of early electronic music pioneers which in addition to Schulze would include Jean-Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk, and Tangerine Dream.  I've always enjoyed his music but I was a bigger fan of the other three artists in that group. That being said, somehow I still ended up accumulating around 20 of his albums. He released more than 60 during his life.    This mix is a collection of his solo work and his collaborations as well as his early work in the groups Ash Ra Tempel & Cosmic Jokers. This set is expanded in length because so many of his tracks are long. While putting this together is was great to rediscover that I love the album Transfer Station Blue. Check it out if you get the chance. https://michaelshrieve.bandcamp.com/album/transfer-station-blue   Take time to remember Klaus, listen to this mix and seek out some of his myriad recordings.    T R A C K L I S T : 00:00    Klaus Schulze - Floating (Moondawn 1976) 07:09    Ash Ra Tempel - Amboss (Ash Ra Tempel 1971) 10:20    Michael Shrieve & Kevin Shrieve & KS - Communique (Transfer Station Blue 1984) 23:10    Pete Namlook & KS - Set the control for the heart of the mother 5 (Dark Side of the Moog 9 2002) 30:48    Lisa Gerrard & KS - Unity (Come Quietly 2009) 32:15    Klaus Schulze - Dune (Dune 1979) 37:55    Cosmic Jokers - Galactic Joke (Cosmic Jokers 1973) 41:50    Stomu Yamashta - Space Requiem (Go 1976) 42:53    Klaus Schulze - Minority Report (Eternal: The 70th Birthday Edition 2017) 55:55    Klaus Schulze - My Ty She (Ballet 3 2007) 1:28:50    Richard Wahnfried - The End - Someday (Trancelation 1994) 1:32:45    end
