Klaus Schulze
Cyborg

Beams and synthetic waves of dead light, artificial sounds that relentlessly propagate into infinity through immense and desolate spaces, and an orchestra suspended in time invade the cosmos, irradiating it with life and movement.

Klaus Schulze, in his second solo album, continues along the same line as his spectacular debut ("Irrlicht" -1972) released a year earlier, but if possible, expanding even further his experimental and visionary musical research. The explorations conducted between the late '60s and early '70s have now taken him beyond the confines of space-time, among the metronomes of the sequencer, the organ, the sound cascades of the synthesizers, and a resounding orchestra of over 50 elements electronically filtered. The four long movements that compose the work advance until they implode upon themselves, in their slow contortion, dilated over time and majestic in their progression; ominous and enveloping, the sound expands in an immense and icy universe, visionary and without any notion of the passage of time, among the infinite geometries of intermittent quasars, dying pulsars, exploded supernovae, and mute and motionless star systems lost in the deepest sidereal space.

A difficult album, profoundly experimental and avant-garde, among mystical and supernatural movements, one of the highest artistic peaks ever reached by a human being in its monotonous, interminable, immense, infinite repetition...CYBORG...
