Amazingly comprehensive German Elektronik music compilation from the peeps at Soul Jazz Records. Avoiding the obvious term - 'krautrock' - they've opted for the more encompassing and descriptive 'experimental German rock & electronic music'. All the recordings are from 1972 to 1983 and feature some of the best known names in the genre - Can, Harmonia, Michael Bundt, Popol Vuh (soundtracked nearly all of Herzog's movies), Faust, Neu!, Ash Ra Tempel, etc...
