As one of the original members of Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze certainly blazed some important trails on the virgin terrain of early-1970s electronic music--trails that would grow wide enough to accommodate millions of travelers throughout the '80s, '90s, 2000s, and beyond, and encompass everything from New Age and ambient music to drone and chill-out techno. The same commitment to innovation marks Schulze's solo discography, from which 1976's MOONDAWN emerges as one of the highlights.

Comprising two long compositions ("Floating" and "Mindphaser"), MOONDAWN is vintage, ambient space music generated by various analog synthesizers (foremost of which is the Moog, the key instrument Schulze used to sculpt his signature sound). Not only is MOONDAWN an important document in the early chapters of electronica, but it stands up remarkably well beside the countless albums it helped inspire.

Recorded at Studio P-anne-Paulsen, Frankfurt, Germany.

Personnel: Klaus Schulze (organ, keyboards, synthesizer); Haraold Grobkopf (drums).

5 stars Brilliant
Schulze's best work - another electronic masterpiece

5 stars very good, well put together
This album feels more developed than his earlier ones. The first few like Cyborg, irrlicht were experimental whereas with this one he is being more musical than sound experiments. It is a really good album to sit down and relax to.

This classic album by Klaus Schulze opens with "Velvet Voyage," a minimal, echoing electronic composition that sounds like a lonely satellite drifting as it passes alone though the hollow quiet of the universe. These swirling electronics--frequently described as space music--suggest the infinite movement ...

Klaus Schulze X CDs  (1978) Bonus Track

Moondawn CD music
CD $18.05  Audio Samples
One of the definitive albums of the electronic music pioneer's career. Each track on X or "Ten" (since it's Schulze's 10th release ) is titled after a famous German personality, but it's the provocative electronic music behind the names that makes this one of his best albums. On this two-CD set, Schulze's sequencer is joined by electric guitar and drums, that pleasingly bring an earthy, simple feel to his pastiches. Still captivating and alluring with his multi-keyboard entourage, the tracks each exhibit a personality all their own. "Friedrich Nietzsche" is the most vibrant of all six, harboring a complex but attractive aura. A true pioneer at his craft, Schulze's X is one of the more definitive albums of his career. Each track on X (or "Ten," since it's Klaus Schulze's tenth release) is titled after famous German personalities, but it's the provocative electronic music within the names that makes this one of his best albums.

Klaus Schulze Timewind CDs  (1975) Bonus Track

Moondawn CD music
CD $18.05  Audio Samples
Dedicated to Richard Wagner, Timewind is a 60-minute electronic expedition that is broken up into two half-hour tracks, "Bayreuth Return" and "Wahnfried 1883." The first 30 minutes involves icy pulsations and lengthy tonal flights that unnoticeably converge into each other. While one rhythm gains momentum, the other one slowly fades into a bubbly electronic bath of bright swirls and meandering keyboard waves. Similar to early Tangerine Dream, the music here rises and falls above a distant sonic horizon, and the effect is truly mesmerizing. One specific flow can last for minutes, while small, detailed noises adhere themselves to the main electronic run. On the second track, more of the same far-off synthesized altering takes place, but the washes of keyboard become inoculated with a sharper, more precise sound. Longer notes build into resilient pieces with the same comforting result. This album will sketch a barren wasteland in the mind through the wispiness of the wind-like effects. Timewind serves as splendid mood music, and the ears are forever kept busy following Schulze's electronic wandering. ~ Mike DeGagne Dedicated to Richard Wagner, Timewind is a 60-minute electronic expedition that ...

Learning About Your Scale
Half-Handed Cloud Learning About Your Scale CD  (2001)

Moondawn music CDs
CD $12.49  Audio Samples
Including 25 songs in 24 minutes used to be the hallmark of intentionally primitive punk albums but, with Learning About Your Scale, Knoxville's Half-Handed Cloud (essentially John Ringhofer with help from various friends) uses the allotted time wisely to craft fully formed, even elaborate pop. Scale would sound like a single continuous piece if Ringhofer had more of an attention span, but he tires quickly of sounds -- a little moog here, a little tuba there, or maybe French horn and rubber band. He does, however, create miniature song cycles within the larger context of the album, complete with phoned-in supporting character dialogue. These mini-plays, which include "Those People We Made? We Love 'Em!" and "Sooty Insides Need Your Cleanliness," together with the broad instrumental palette, make Scale appear bristling with ideas and enthusiasm -- almost Baroque despite its brevity. Shifting gears with hyperactive exuberance, moving from Beach Boys-inspired harmonies to the folkier side of T. Rex, Scale can be a jarring listening experience, but it demands attention (forget about doing anything else but listening while this is on) ...
