  • 20 - A.R. + Machines, Die Grüne Reise

    Today we accept a listener's invite up to Hamburg, for a visit with A.R. + Machines.Achim Reichel grew up near the docks, listening to sea shanties. He found work at the Star-Club waiting tables, but soon enough he was on its stage playing with the Rattles—and running with Lennon & McCartney.Come 1971 he ditched his bandmates for a tape machine. Krautrock followed. Turns out Achim was just passing through on his way to other sounds and traditions. But this green le...

  • 19 - Amon Düül, Psychedelic Underground

    In today's episode, Carla and Brad tip their caps to the ten or more young Bavarians who stood up to Mom and Dad, demanded money for a swank downtown apartment, and most assuredly drove their neighbors nuts with the ensuing band rehearsals. Well, maybe we tip our caps more to the parents who funded this grand and glorious adventure.Musical Münchner communards choose attitude over aptitude. Drum circles and pudding plots abound. Push the levels all the way up into the red, wh...

    Schoolyard friends Manuel Göttsching and Hartmut Enke loved the Beatles and the blues ... like everybody else in a Berlin rock band in the late '60s. But then they got hold of Blue Cheer's record and some blow-the-doors-off British amps. Soon wunderkind drummer Klaus Schulze was at their door, sniffing around the new equipment. Things were gonna get LOUD. Ash Ra Tempel's soundquakes and soundscapes show off a dynamic range that is unmatched in Krautrock. Come jo...

  • 16 - **Special Conny Plank Episode**/ Moebius & Plank, Rastakraut Pasta

    No figure loomed larger over Krautrock, as a genre, than legendary producer/ sound engineer Konrad "Conny" Plank ... and we've been looking for an opportunity to talk about him. Then we discovered the Rastakraut Pasta LP that he and Dieter Moebius recorded and released in 1980. Problem solved!From behind the board in Cologne's Rhenus Studio and then his own converted farmhouse in Wolperath, Plank put on tape some (most?) of the best German kosmische and electronic music of the '70...
