Ash Ra Tempel

Description:

One of the legendary bands of the Krautrock/German experimental music scene: ASH RA TEMPEL, released on Ohr label in Germany in '73. Reissue! Klaus Schulze (dr/organ/synth), who left the band after the release of 1972's "SCHWINGUNGEN", temporarily returned to the band and joined Rosi (vocalisation) from the previous session to produce this two-song masterpiece. Freak'N'Roll' is based on repetitive rhythms and free playing, while inheriting the chaotic sound image as an extension of 'SCHWINGUNGEN' from 1972, and the trancey 'Jenseits' features Rosi's narration on a wave of organ/synths similar to Schulzre's works from the same period. Jenseits', which is a turning point work that shows the prototype of the musicality of Gottsching/Schulze from then on! The master is the same re-mastered source material as the label's previously released CDs, and the LP was recut under Manuel Gottsching's supervision.
