Various Artists - Krautrock (Vinyl)

A set with "Krautrock" in the title – but one that's got a tighter, funkier feel than some of the longer-form work of the early 70s German prog generation! These artists definitely reference that period in music, and make great use of vintage-sounding keyboards, guitars, and other elements – but the tracks are short and groovy, and are almost a sound library take on the genre – and a funky one at that! Titles include "Haschisch Und Sex In Schwabylon" by The Rhythm Snipers, "Hippie Karawane" by John Reed & The Automatics, "Hyperreal Simulacra Cake" by Tendaji Donje, "Opium" by John Reed & The Automatics, "Afropa" by The Rhythm Snipers, "Krakatoa" by Tendaji Donje, "Mogadishu 77" by The Rhythm Snipers, "Time Is Passing" by John Reed & The Automatics, and "Intercity Nach Utopia" by Tendaji Donje.
