The two tracks are edits from the band's 1971 eponymous debut album, on which Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius harnessed oscillators, filters and tape machines to produce a record that's widely perceived as a blueprint for the evolution of electronic sound. ‘15:43’ and ‘21:32’ are momentous early sketches of what would become ambient music, a few years before Brian Eno stumbled upon the idea and collaborated with Roedelius and Moebius on 1977’s ‘Cluster \u0026amp; Eno' album. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e“Moebius and I were pleased by the reception for ‘Cluster’,” says Roedelius. “It was a sort of initiation of the whole krautrock movement that followed.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eAs with all our music releases, this record is strictly limited and is only available to readers of Electronic Sound, so make sure you get your copy right away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pressing Matters Record Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56830704124282,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/2238\/5457\/files\/Electronic_Sound_Issue_123_Cluster_Vinyl_Bundle.webp?v=1776874840","url":"https:\/\/pressingmattersrecordshop.com\/products\/electronic-sound-elektronisches-deutschland-cluster-orange-vinyl-single","provider":"Pressing Matters Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
