Krautrock

Harmonia is a Krautrock supergroup from Germany. They formed as a collaboration between Michael Rother of Neu! and Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius of Cluster. Later, they included British ambient music artist Brian Eno for their lone release together under the name Harmonia 76. Their first album, "Musik Von Harmonia" (1973), leaned more towards Cluster's ambient-tinged rock than Neu's Motorik rock. The second album "Deluxe" (1975) had much stronger beats and a more Motorik sound, arguably more commercial. With the addition of Brian Eno for the 1976 recording sessions, the third album, Tracks and Traces, was again more ambient in style.
Harmonia disbanded in 1976 but reunited in 2007 to perform live at the Worldtronics Festival in Berlin, Germany. In November of that year, they also released "Live 1974", featuring entirely new material not found on any previous albums.
Similar artists to Harmonia include Cluster, La Düsseldorf, Michael Rother, Popol Vuh, Moebius & Roedelius (Cluster), Ashra, Holger Czukay (Can), Guru Guru, Amon Düül II , Agitation Free , Kosmischer Läufer , Conrad Schnitzler , Peter Baumann , Faust ,

The debut Harmonia LP, 'Musik Von Harmonia', appeared in 1974 (with an accomplished live track, recorded in Amsterdam) and marks the first collaborative effort between Cluster's Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius and Neu!'s Michael Rother: a German supergroup and genuine rarity, a colossal artistic success. The three members were skilled keyboard players, guitarists, electronic percussionists and composers. This was a group musically and conceptually miles ahead of its time. 'Musik Von Harmonia' is at once a product of their source bands and a fine new twist on them, resulting in music that captures what for many is the Krautrock ideal, or more accurately, the motorik ideal. It's not Kraftwerk's all-synth, clean, clinical pulse, nor Neu!'s seemingly effortless glide, nor Can's stomping art world funk. Instead it's at once playful and murky, steady and mechanical, a supergroup of sorts who easily achieves and maintains such a seemingly overstated status by embracing a variety of approaches that work wonders.
