Popol Vuh

Popol Vuh, pioneers of German "krautrock" music, was the creature of Florian Fricke (1944-2001). The first album "Affenstunde" (1970) is an early jaunt into electronic music built on the Moog synthesizer. "In Den Gärten Pharaos" (1971) fused electronic and organ sounds into an intense, almost religious ambient music. From "Hosianna Mantra" (1972) on, Popol Vuh abandoned electronics for a personal avant-garde progressive rock.
