Kluster - Cluster - and now Qluster - an extraordinary shedding of skin of one of the most important german electronic groups. Hans-joachim roedelius was there from the beginning (kluster from 1969 on with conrad schnitzler and dieter moebius; cluster from 1971 on with dieter moebius; qluster with onnen bock since 2010). Little need be said about roedelius, whose collaborations with conrad schnitzler, cluster and harmonia earned him a worldwide reputation as a pioneer of electronic music. Onnen bock (born in 1974), a qualified musician and sound installationist, played a part in the zeitkratzer ensemble, worked together with the likes of christina kubisch and was a sound engineer for the berlin philharmonic. Hans-joachim roedelius and onnen bock are qluster. The two artists have been meeting up to explore new musical directions together since 2007. They have recorded a musical trilogy (fragen / rufen / antworten - questioning / calling / responding) which will be released in 2011 and 2012. (label info)
