Album Description

Suddenly their music became more joyful, funny, melodic and all in all more accessible. This album consists of ten pieces of music that are driven forward by a primitive drum machine, synthesizers and different traditional instruments. Spalax. 2002.

The sounds of today (and tomorrow) from yesterday.

"Zuckerzeit ("Sugar Era") proves to be a classic upon first listen. The album was a progressive move forward for Roedelius and Moebius who began to compose with rhythmic structures by way of an early drum machine and a stronger emphasis on harmony, a great departure from "Cluster II". What results is a fresh and warm analog experience which many to this very day are trying to recapture but so very few do. Re-mastering seems to have been well done.



I wonder why this release is not as well known as the classic "Autobahn" considering they both came out in 1974."
