*2025 stock* Rodion-Ladislau Rosca spent his lifetime creating music that was ambitious, groundbreaking and innovative. He was a pioneering composer, a talented multi-instrumentalist and producer.

Despite being popular in their native Romania, Rodion G.A. had to work under an oppressive Communist regime only releasing two tracks that appeared on a compilation album in 1981. Rodion, however…

Drosselbart
"Was Drosselbart a Krautrock band just because they came from Munich like Amon Düül, sang in German and released their first and only album on a major German record label in 1971?
'No,' says Monika Vincent-Gunia aka Jemima, Drosselbart's singer. 'We were the first punk band in Germany. The guys in the band could only play three chords, maybe four, but they were burning with enthusiasm'.
However, Drosselbart's music on the album of the same name has very little to do with the punk of the mid-seve…

Journey Into a Dream
F. G. Experimental Laboratory means Frédy Guye, an artist from the French speaking part of Switzerland who fiddles with sound. Every instrument is played by himself: the organ, the synthesizer with its additional gadgets, and the electric guitar. Yet, he doesn't sound like Mike Oldfield at all, but sometimes rather like Klaus Schulze. F. G. Experimental Laboratory plays a musical mix of electronic and classic which is as unusual as exceptional. In 1975 he released an LP on his own edition Frédy …

Essen 1970
Stunning quality, rare live performance recordings of krautrock pioneers Guru Guru, from one of their earliest ever live concerts on Sunday October the 25th 1970.

Sourced from tapes recorded directly from the sound desk at the show, the recording quality is phenomenal for something of this vintage era. The original line…

Irrlicht 2017 Remastered
Irrlicht is the solo debut album from Klaus Schulze (originally released in 1972) and is an absolute masterpiece in cosmic, space music.

With no electronic pulse and rhythms, just a gloomy and distorted a…
