Movie Time! "Krautrock: The Rebirth of Germany"...
Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 01:42AM Greetings! I have long since wanted to watch this beautiful documentary that was shown last year on BBC 4 - "Krautrock - The Rebirth of Germany". Now thanks to kukkaisrinsessa 's YouTube Channel, we can watch on this fine, gentle drizzly Cardiff morning.

Above - Klaus Schultze in 1976 with his army of machines to die for. (photo from KlausSchultze.com). He's featured in part 3.
Here are parts One through three...have a watch with me and let me know what you think - do you have links to more? I feel I may have to delve deeper into this beautiful breed of sonic sweetness for my own well- being. Enjoy:
Pssst - more goodness? Check out the great Krautrock.com as well.

I was lucky enough to catch it on iPlayer. It really is a fine documentary, very interesting. Recommended! :)
I really enjoyed this. Well, until I got to part 6 where YouTube killed the audio track for "copyright reasons".
I really enjoyed. Especially part 2 with the cuts off of "Phaedra" from Tangerine Dream. One of my all time faves!!!! History, electronics, experimental music. What more goodness can one ask for?
Thanks again Tara.
;^D
It's really informative and beautoful, isnt it? Shame the audio gets cut off on part 6 just as we're getting into Harmonia...grr!!!
Anyway though, really loving this music and the history behind it is incredible.
