My last band did a single called Noyfriend that was a complete NEU! rip-off and no one got the joke - on the album we were gonna cal it NEUfriend to kind of rub the point home. (Me & a couple of other chicks were forever joking about starting an all girl Cluster/harmonia tribute band called Zuckerzeit.) d/l-ing now... (may take a while on this connection.)

awepittance Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 just walked away from a local record store with vinyl copies of Sowiesoso & Zuckerzeit. I'm a happy man! unfortunately they wanted $28 for a repressing of Musik von harmonia, or else i would have bought that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Z_B_Z Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 well this sounds amazing. and with zoviet france too BIG WATER: CLUSTER AND :ZOVIET*FRANCE: LIVEan evening of swimming and floating with music 19:30 – 22:30 Wednesday 10 March 2010 Sunderland Aquatic Centre, Sunderland UK map location tickets: GBP 5.00 book online Sound travels 4.5 times faster underwater, a phenomenon that can be directly experienced during AV Festival 10. In the spectacular environment of Sunderland Aquatic Centre, two of Europe’s influential electronic music groups perform live for both underwater and pool-side listening, creating a once in a lifetime experience. By submerging, you can immerse yourself in one version of the music through an underwater soundsystem. For those who would rather sit back and relax, a separate poolside version of the performance can be heard, and by floating on the surface of the water you can mix the two together. Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius have been making music together as Cluster since 1969. Alongside Kraftwerk, Can and Faust, they are pioneers of krautrock and have been a major influence on musicians from David Bowie to Autechre. Now aged 75 and 65, they are more vital than ever and since they reunited in 2007 have performed at No Fun Festival and Documenta 12. This performance is a homage to their 1979 album 'Grosses Wasser' ('Big Water'). :zoviet*france: is a prolific music group based in Newcastle, who are pioneers of ambient and electronic music. Formed in 1980, this performance marks their 30th anniversary. Supported by Newcastle-based DJs Fratelli di Rimini of the infamous Road to Rimini club night. Tickets are available for the water and poolside areas (swim suits required!), or if you prefer to stay dry, you can book a place in the raked seating overlooking the pool A FREE Festival coach departs from Newcastle Central Station at 19:15 with a pick up at BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art at 19:30, and departs Sunderland at 22:30. For details and to reserve a seat, email reservations@avfestival.co.uk In addition to this event, Wet Sounds will deliver underwater deep listening sessions at Sunderland Aquatic Centre during the Festival.

Guest Masonic Boom Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 OMG, that would be amazing - Cluster doing underwater aquatic sounds. However... SUNDERLAND. Not somewhere I associate with swimming. Or indeed being in any kind of semi-undressed fashion near water bbrrrrrrrrr I don't think I'm willing to freeze my tits off, no, not even for Cluster. Unless they provide those deep sea diving suits that insulate one against the cold. Why don't they do it somewhere sensible like, Ibiza or the Bahamas.

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 14 tracks did a Hans-Joachim Roedelius collection this week... http://14tracks.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Person90 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 There's a Cluster (or maybe Kluster?) track that has lyrics about a head in a trash heap. Does anyone know this song and what album its on? I heard it once on Hearts of Space or Pacific Noir many years ago, and haven't found any info on it since.

Guest Masonic Boom Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Lyrics? I don't think I've ever heard a Cluster track with vocals. I could be wrong, but that sounds way more like something Faust would do, especially thematically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but that sounds way more like something Faust would do, especially thematically. vocals yes, lyrics no. i'm sure there's one track on grosses wasser with vocals. and one on sowiesoso too yes? loose vocals though, not quite singing hehe. if you can be pedantic i can! haha!

Guest Masonic Boom Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Ha ha, OK, pedant, point ceded. But then again, half the time I can't tell *what* their sounds are or where they come from. There may well be human voices. I just can't think of any recognisable lyrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Person90 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 The host had said it was Cluster, but I missed the name of the song...The vocals were more spoken-word than sang. In fact, they reminded me more of the guy from Cabaret Voltaire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ominous Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 could it be from Ludwig's Law by Moebius, Plank and Mayo Thompson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Person90 Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 could it be from Ludwig's Law by Moebius, Plank and Mayo Thompson? That could be it. Sounds very similar to the vocals, but the sample is short, so I will look around a bit. Thanx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
