Rerelease of the second album, originally released in
1973. This popular album is upgraded with a generous bonus and detailed
liner notes in a 16 page booklet.
Klaus Schulze about „Cyborg“: In its own way, this
album is the most consistent ever to be released as “cosmic
music”. On “Cyborg” I used orchestral
tapes, as I had previously done on “Irrlicht”
[1972]. I talked to the music students at Colloquium Musica and asked
whether they had any more recordings for me. They gave me a few tapes
that they had made in the studio at Berlin University that they used to
review what they had played during their rehearsals. For me, it
wasn’t important if their performance was perfect –
I just wanted to have the sound. I then cut the tape and scattered it
in little portions on all four sides of the LP like adding
spice…
The bonus track “But Beautiful” is a live recording
taken from a concert at St. Michael’s cathedral in Brussels
back in 1977. A great gig, which today you would probably call an
“event”. The church was so crowded that they opened
all the doors so people standing outside could listen too. At first
there were policemen standing around the church. But then they went
away after they realised that this was a peaceful event…
