Berliner Schule by sssvnnn
The "Berliner Schule" (Berlin school of electronic music)
was a small group of artists that invented a new form of electronic music in Berlin in the beginning of the 70`s.
They started with the idea of a contemporary technical but atmospheric sound that was never heard before. In the beginning (1970 TD: Electronic Meditations, 1972 Schulze: Irrlicht) they didn`t even have electronic instruments, because there were none.
The were creating simple electronical devices and used various technical instruments and oscillators to create sounds.
A soon as they`ve got the first Moog synthesizers that were handmade by Robert Moog in New York they were able to create a music that came close to the visions that they had.
The time between the invention of the Mini-Moog (1971)and the beginning of the digital aera(Schulze: Dig It 1980 - the first fully digitally recorded and released album) was the best time of the artists of the Berliner Schule.

This beauiful, relaxed and harmonic insrumental Album has been produced by Peter Baumann from Tangerine Dream. [First added to this chart: 08/10/2019]
This album is very much influenced by Schulze and shows a kind of rythmical
"Berlin School" music. [First added to this chart: 09/02/2014]
He always release nice and ahospheric music.
He is just 10 years late to be innovative. [First added to this chart: 09/11/2014]
New Age musicians seem to be the more esoteric and commercial followers of the Berliner Schule artists.
This album is not as sweet as the typical New Age stuff, it´s relaxing and sounds good...and sounds pretty much like the Berliner Schule artists. [First added to this chart: 05/09/2015]
I guess there is no other connection to the berlin school and I´m not sure if she even knows the german music of the 70´s. [First added to this chart: 01/15/2017]
