These are my favourite krautrock albums.
Not any significant guidelines this
time, just an obvious one. The bands
should be from a german-speaking
country, that is, Germany, Austria or
Switzerland.
From then on, the usual
(1) Up to 3 albums per artist.
(2) Albums are in alphabetical order
Feel free to comment!
Keep watching till the end of the video...
Omg i have for several years a tune in my head and it did not want to leave😅

Gran chulada de discos obras de arte mis favoritos
There are some great albums ( even masterpieces) missing from this list:
Kanguru ( Guru Guru ), Cluster '71, Wolf City ( ADII), Join Inn ( Ash Ra Tempel), Hoelderlin - Traum, Kraftwerk- Autobahn, 1st...
Tangerine dream - Atem , Phaedra...
Out of Focus, Gila, Dzyan- Electric Silence
Brainticket - Psychonaut..
Sergius Golowin - Lord Krishna Von Goloka is a must . You will hallucinate without partaking, if you know what I mean. ✌😊
Man! this is fun!! I was very, very fortuante to become friends with Hogler Czukay of CAN.... Interesting thing he told me once about Future Days in an e-mail that he had a fight with the band over the recording because he felt the percussion was way to loud. When they went back to re-mix the albums for Super Audio, whic I was very fortunate that he sent me all copies of, they agreed so many years later. I told him it was one of my favorite CAN albums and he said his too... BUt, believe or not, he told me his favorire was the very first one, that was released actually later was Delay 1968. Uphill is a killer song.....
I'm glad Gomorrha made your list. One of the earliest examples of Krautrock and its a great record. There are some excellent choises here and definately a few I've not come across before. Thanks for the post.
I feel ashamed, but I have to admit, that I only knew six of the bands and artists and loved *all* of them 😊.
Thank you very much.
relax, I didn't know any of these groups. 😅
Très , très belle liste . J ' aurai peut-être ajouté un petit " Dzyan " mais c' est du jazz rock . ( hors sujet ) .
Et j' aime beaucoup " Echo " ( 1972 ) d' A.R ( Achim Reichel ) et Machines.

Où sont Cosmic century et Blitzkrieg de Wallenstein ?
I have a few of these albums, but the vast majority are new to me. Oh, i have jeard of the names like Neu! and Amon Düül butost of the rest are completely unk own and certainly worth investigating.
I personally thought Popol Vuh Aguirre should haveade the list.
Magnum Opus - Sinestesia
A great album list indeed… but only half are krautrock.
The other part is prog.
Isn't progresive Krautrock? What do You understand as kraut?
@@guillermolizardi6321You're wrong. Rock progressivo it's not Krautrock.
RIP Damo 😖
Das sind wirklich sehr kurze Ausschnitte; man hatte nicht die Möglichkeit, sich mal 30 Sekunden einzugrooven pro Song
Great job!!!
Wallenstein : Blitzkrieg und Cosmic Century ?
I never heard only for Between. Good. But many of them left, it is short list.
listen to laurie spiegel the expanding universe! patchwork, a folk study, and east river dawn are some of my favorite krautrock songs
i should mention she is not german but that shouldnt matter. she pioneered early synth use in the 70s that is reminiscent of and in krautrock
I'll check her out 👍.
@@p6v665 The Expanding Universe is a wonderful piece of electronic music indeed and well worth a shout out, thankyou. To be pedantic I would say that she pioneered the use of computer algorithms in electronic music composition.
Code 3 planet of man
Rufus Zuphall were from Aachen and not from Wiesbaden !!
Cheers from Aachen
I agree with some favourite kraut rock albums Guru Guru is not in my taste.
I would Prefer Carol of Harvest, Epidaurus those two gems of Symphonic Prog folk
The 'thing' with lists is that anyone can make them .
Great 'jumping-off' places, but don't stick to them rigidly.
Great list! BUT... Where is Brainticket, Jane, Birth Control?? Thanx))
Some good ones there, but i think Amon Duul 2 best albums were- WOLF CITY & HIJACK, plus some Moebius & Plank albums were terrific. cheers.
El phallus del me enloquece me emociona mucho saludos
Erlkönig,1973
Why not 'Out of Focus'??
Yes, I have an l.p. by Out Of Focus called Rat Roads and its very good.
Es fehlt das erste Album der Mannheimer Gruppe Kin Ping Meh von 1971 !!!
Sand,1974
What happened to Kaipa?
If you like to hear me tell the stories of various music genres, visit my other channel:

Half of this list are progressive rock artists, not exactly krautrock. Krautrock is a genre also played by Austrian and Swiss groups. Not everything German is krautrock. Birth Control is a German rock band that fuses progressive rock and hard rock, but the fact of being German does not mean being krautrock.
Krautrock (also called "Kosmische musik") is a German avant-garde/experimental rock movement that emerged at the end of the 1960's. It was intended to go beyond the eccentricities developed by the wild psychedelic rock universe of the US, by giving a special emphasis to electronic treatments, sound manipulation and minimal hypnotic motifs (continuing the style of "musique concrete" and minimalist repetitive music but within a more accessible environment).
Krautrock put the emphasis on extended and ecstatic instrumental epics, neglecting the format of conventional psych-pop songs. The term Krautrock was first used by the British music press in a very derogatory way. The term quickly found a better reputation in underground music circles and finally gained a certain popularity (thanks to the Brain-Festival Essen...)
The Krautrock movement is widely associated with notorious bands such as Popol Vuh, Amon Duul, Faust, Neu!, Ash Ra Tempel, Agitation Free, Guru Guru, etc. With their own particular artistic expression, these musical collectives provided rocking psychedelic incantations, mantra like drones, melancholic lugubrious atmospheres, long and convoluted collective improvisations, binary repetitive drum pulses, fuzz guitars, feedback, primitive electronic noises, hallucinatory ballads, and garage blues rock trips. Krautrock can be described as an anarchic, intense, acid, tellurian, nocturnal, spacey, dark and oneiric "adventure" through rock music.
NO NOVALIS
Great list, but I think Eloy and Grobschnitt are not considered Krautrock.
It's early Eloy, for the later, more well-known albums I agree with you.
..why not? Please explain.
Kollektiv es KrautRock ??
Birth Control, Nektar?
Амон Дюл только знаю🎉
И CAN конечно же🎉
Очень вам завидую, что теперь сможете всё это послушать в первый раз. А я вот уже не смогу. 😂 Все эти альбомы уже кучу лет как переслушаны до дыр. На компе лежат полные дискографии всех этих групп во флаке. Добавил бы в этот список ещё альбомов 40. (думал найти тут чего-нибудь для себя новенькое, чего не знаю, а вот фигушки. ппц какой я старый и нудный 😢)
I am not agree of this list..Both Amon Duuls "Yeti" and Cans "Tago Mago" should be on top here..
Electric Sandwich......😂
=o
Not even 10 seconds per piece, it's not even worth listening to. It would have been more interesting to present only 20 greatest in 15 minutes to discover the groups.
Dude, just check them out independently!
Buena selección,,aunque faltan al menos diez grupos tan buenos o mas que esos,,"birch control """etc...
