LA RECENSIONE
Pioneer of the New Age, manifesto of electronic music, nothing more needs to be said. Four movements that lay the foundations and manage, from this work onwards, to open up the entire world of criticism towards electronic music, which until then was still skeptical. I am strongly tempted to stop here, but they would comment that I could have spent a few more words, so: listening to this album in 2024 makes us think of the artist's grand dimension, his extreme courage to release this work in 1973, and even then, as it still does today, it allows us to travel through time and our minds towards new worlds that we all have fantasized about while watching science fiction films or reading Philip K. Dick's books. Dark worlds on the horizon, unsettling sensations towards new discoveries, the world of cosmic music opens up, and we can traverse any path in space and time that we like the most. Enjoy the listening.

By Emanuel Fantoni
Landscapes of tactile sensations, antimatter released from matter: namely the sequencer, on the outskirts of hell walking in the flickering light of petrochemical plants with its hypnotic metronomies.
Thank you Klaus for projecting to us the sense of the works of Dalí and Max Ernst.
By Rocky Marciano
Beams and synthetic waves of dead light, artificial sounds that relentlessly propagate into infinity through immense and desolate spaces.
One of the highest artistic peaks ever reached by a human being in its monotonous, interminable, immense, infinite repetition...CYBORG...
By Battlegods
You’re not listening to music, you’re living in a world.
Schulze produced 'Irrlicht' and 'Cyborg' in the same year, surpassing many illustrious ideas of the Seventies.
