ROBERT SCHROEDER
Mosaique
1981 Germany pressing
@ #45rpm
An excellent chapter from the book of Berlin-School electronics.
The third Schroeder album (produced by Klaus Schulze), it utilizes the brand-new-at-the-time PPG WAVE 2, a German built #synthesizer that gained such notoriety, that literally everybody started using them. It is an endless list of who’s who when it comes to early #80s synth music (Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, Tangerine Dream and David Bowie to name just a few).
Here, Schroeder blends the PPG with guitar, bass and drum flawlessly. The album sounds incredible, and creates quite the atmosphere.
I’ve mentioned on here before about my penchant for records that are great for playing whilst pursuing other creative endeavours like drawing, painting, etc, and this one fits that bill perfectly.
