A unique sound from very talented pioneering musicians who were always experimenting with new melodies, beats, and rhythms. So relaxing and before it's time. Brilliant.
Cluster were a German musical duo consisting of Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius, formed in 1971 and associated with West Germany's krautrock and kosmische music scenes.Borne from the earlier Berlin-based group Kluster, they relocated to the countryside village of Forst in 1971, where they built a studio and collaborated with musicians such as Conny Plank, Brian Eno, and Michael Rother; with the latter, they formed the influential side-project Harmonia. After first disbanding in 1981, Cluster reunited several times: from 1989 to 1997, and from 2007 to 2010. AllMusic described the group as "the most important and consistently underrated space rock unit of the '70s." Music historian Julian Cope places three Cluster albums-Cluster 71 (1971), Zuckerzeit (1974), and Sowiesoso (1976)-in his Krautrock Top 50 and The Wire places Cluster's debut album Cluster 71 in their "One Hundred Records That Set The World On Fire".
Actually Cope picked Cluster II (1972), not their debut, alongside Zuckerzeit and Sowiesoso for his Top 50 (which is ranked alphabetically, not by quality). And, inexplicably, he gave Cluster II a poor review, saying "I always seem to come away from this album feeling disappointed" and "I'm unsure whether this album deserves its place in the top 50 as I don't like it".
