Nightcrawlers - Crystal Loops (1983) [320]
electronic, Berlin school
no sample available www64.zippyshare.com/v/pFhXMwWu/file.html nightcrawler is a cool group, for both their music and the how they recorded it. They'd plop a microphone in their garage and just have each synth be connected to a speaker. Which is why you can hear crickets and shuffles/coughs in some of their recordings. Haven't seen anyone else do it that way. As for the music, it's a great big love letter to Schulze & Co.
Berlin school from New Jersey? What? The live basement duo made a nice one this time, and the low recording quality seems to add to the homemade feeling.

Here's a really special one:
Aart Zwaans - Sémi Hóra (1982) [128]
electronic, minimal, ambient
One of my top five of all time albums. Mellow, sometimes thunderous, minimal electronica. When it gets going it reels you in to no end. One of those things you wished was more well-known.
Also keyboardist for Neuronium, here Carlos puts out a great solo upbeat electronic album. The penultimate track, Walking Across The Garden Of Your Mind, is a great Berlin school piece. Others, like Stonehenge, are just really neat to zone out to.

Volcano the Bear - Vol III (1996) [FLAC] >Ambient, Avantgarde, Experimental
More laid-back than other Roedelius of the same era. A bit spooky

Monoton - Monotonprodukt 07 (1982) [320]
electronic, minimal synth, ambient
youtube.com/watch?v=2I-zgitWbRo www64.zippyshare.com/v/PRRPNdCH/file.html It's named after the city of Forst, where Hans-Joachim Roedelius, Dieter Moebius and Michael Rother lived. Forst School is usually lumped into "progressive electronic", but it is distinct in having more organic beats, lack of heavy sequences, tape loops, and a nontraditional use of synthesizer sounds. Forst School often has a touch of ambient in it, with sounds being in the "background." Usually the tracks are shorter than something like Berlin School. Also, instruments are typically in higher registers than progE and Berlin School. It just sort of has a relaxed feel to it. Or something like that. "Low-key pastoral electronica" according to the first dude that described it. It's sorta hard to explain; stuff like Tietchens, A La Ping Pong, Cluster, and so forth
A++++ minimalism. The first 60 seconds is all you need love it then again, it is something that doesn't really need to be subcategorized, I guess. But when you have 160 albums with the same genre, but different themes between them, you start noticing similarities between some of em. So I'm using Forst School to help organize my stuff, it would be neat if other people did too I suppose
I love Xolotl. He can really wrangle some stunning tracks out of his gear. All of these small-time cassette artists just get passed over, and I can't figure out why... The medium shouldn't define the music

I fucked it up, I'm not him, sorry user, I just wanted to feel like I was someone for once.

Requesting Sun kil moon ghost of the great highway
51 minutes of manipulated saxophone sounds. It really isn't for everyone. Sounds like off-putting space ambient at some points. Otherwise, it's just wacky saxophones overlaid, slowed down, and overall quite harsh. A+
