In Blue
Klaus Schulze first attracted attention as a member of the German progressive rock band, Tangerine Dream. Following the release of their debut LP, Electronic Meditation, he departed for a solo career. Klaus' recorded work typically features extended pieces sometimes filling an entire album built around computer-generated synthesizers and other specially programmed electronic effects. Klaus Schulze remains a cult figure in the United States, where the bulk of his prolific output has until now been available only through the import bins. He is widely considered an avant-garde mainstay as well as a founding father of both the new-age space music and electronica genres.Originally released in 1995, In Blue first saw the light of day as a double CD. Featuring Klaus’ old friend Manuel Göttsching (Ash Ra Temple) on guitar in both the studio setting and the bonus live recording. The Special Deluxe 3CD Edition of In Blue is housed in a stylish digipak with an enhanced booklet, including new liner notes and photos.
