10. Harmonia – “Complete Works” 6LP Boxset

Available since early November “Complete Works” is 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.

Here’s a preview of the release, which you can still order right here.

Since you’re here …

… 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 haven’t put up a paywall – 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-Line’s 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 – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
