Harmonia sees complete archives released as 6LP boxset
Out by early November, and ready for ordering here, is “Complete Works”, a 6 vinyl boxset compiling all 5 albums the short-lived German Krautrock band Harmonia released between 1973 and 1976. Spread over 6 vinyls you’ll find the digitally remastered versions of “Musik von Harmonia”, “Deluxe” (produced by Conny Plank), “Tracks And Traces” (a 2LP with Brian Eno), “Live 1974” and “Documents”.
Harmonia featured Dieter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius of Cluster, and Michael Rother of NEU!. Their music captured the attention of Brian Eno, David Bowie, and other mainstream musicians. Eno even briefly joined the band, recording music with them in 1976, those tapes were released on the “Tracks And Traces” album.
The set can be ordered right here.
Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect.
Chief editor of Side-Line â which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify whatâs actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, Iâm all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraineâs ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since youâre here âŠ
⊠we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we havenât put up a paywall â we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Lineâs independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine â and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
