...listening to this in late May 2022 for the first time (with headphones). I didn't know anything about Klaus. What an unexpected treat. Magnificent. Thank You for Posting.
I will never forget the day in 1978 when I listened to this song for the first time. I was blown away and since then I've listened to this genius almost daily.
I saw Klaus Schulze in the early 80s, what you see on this pic is what you glimpse from time to time in concert him in white overhaul sitting on some furs and surrounded by his synthesiser most of us where lying smoking dope and enjoying, not expensive either, very good stuff really 😏🙏
I remember that, for years I looked for "someone who may sound like Jarre or Vangelis or even better", then I found KS and over 50 albums that can be considered masterpieces.
Believe it or not, I have a cassette of this piece copied back in the mid-1980's. I still listen to it driving to work. At about the 5 minute mark, it becomes trance-like. Still awesome after 30+ years.
One of the best of Master Klaus Schulze,rip my Elettronic/Cosmic friend.You had a really Cosmic connection,i cry for your departure,but your music Will remain Forever and Will fly for the eternety.
J'ai découvert KS à l'âge de 15 ans environ; avec "X". Depuis j'ai été captivé par les synthétiseurs, et je possède une majeure partie de ses albums... C'est le meilleur pour moi, et sa musique est magnifique (timewind, par exemple)... J'aimais beaucoup JM Jarre, à l'époque, ainsi que Tangerine Dream; et Vangelis. Mais KS reste impressionnant par sa carrière en solo, et par la quantité d'albums qu'il a composé... Sa musique reste d'une richesse et d'une exploration sonore incroyable, et ne me lasse pas de l' écouter. Merci à SPV d'avoir réédité la série "la vie électronique". j'ai pû découvrir ainsi d'autres morceaux...
hello moi aussi j'ai découvert KS à 16 ans avec Blackdance puis Timewind j'a l'ai vu en Concert en 1976 avec GO au palais des sports et 5 ou 6 fois depuis. C'est le maitre incontesté du Synthé je possède tous ces albums dont une bonne partie en vinyle . J'aime aussi TD vu 6 fois en concert dont une fois à Londres et bien sur Vangélis, Jarre, Redshift, RMI chris Frank et Peter Baumann en solo . bonne écoute !
Agreed. "X" and "Mirage" are my favorite Klaus Schulze albums. I also like "Timewind", "Moondawn", "Body Love, Vol. 1", "Body Love, Vol. 2", "... Live ...", "The Historic Edition", and most of the rest, but just not as much as "X" and "Mirage".
@@philipclayberg4928 Hi ! 🙋♂️ DREAMS, EN=TRANCE, TRANCEFER, BLACKDANCE & IN BLUE gehören auch " ganz nach oben ", finde ich. Auch das Stück ' DUNE ' oder auch ' DRESDEN TWO ' & ' SYNTHASY ' (auf DIG IT).. aber TIMEWIND ist immer auf Platz 1. 😊😊🥰 Grüße 🙋♂️🙋♂️ 🧡💛💚💙💜
X und Mirage bleiben für mich die allerbesten Alben von KS. Und daran wird sich wohl auch nie was ändern. Trotz der grandionsen Musik die er bis dahin und danach komponiert und gespielt hat.
this music i heared first time in 1978 , september 17th on WDR2 RADIO . my favorite title from "X" r "LUDWIG II VON BAYERN" ! es ist und wird immer sein , das beste album klaus schulze´s !
Agreed. I'm thankful that he released a full version (without any truncated tracks) around 2000 or so. In my opinion, it makes the album even better now than the original release was.
@@philipclayberg4928 Da haben Sie VOLLKOMMEN Recht !! 🙂🙂🙂😊😊🤗🥰🥰 Vor allem bei ' GEORG TRAKL ' - d a f e h l t e j a z u v o r a l l e s . . !!! Und ich habe jetzt erst mitbekommen, daß auch DIESEM " guten Stück " etwa eine halbe Minute fehlt !!! - W A R U M ??? Ebenso bei ' D U N E ' !!! ( Ich kannte das nur in der 29.56 min. - Fassung.. 🤷♂️ )
I try not to listen to KS too often so it remains fresh and does not become ordinary to me. This piece seems meant to be listened to on a full moon night when low broken clouds are racing across the sky. Ludwig II is for walking in wind driven snow storms. I also suggest checking out Body Love volume 2
Sehr gut !! Ja, man kann nicht immer alles hören.. Alles hat seine Z e i t . . . 🥰🤗 Bei KS geht es mir aber so, daß es tatsächlich BESSER wird, umso öfter ich's höre; auch die meisten Stücke, die ich zuvor nicht so gut fand.. 🥰🥰 Von BODY LOVE gefällt mir aber wirklich nur ' P.T.O. ' RICHTIG GUT. 🤷♂️
I've been listening K.S. every morning for over 2 years now, still as much again that I have never heard, a seemingly endless wellspring of music, always fresh to these ears!
And the looping in "Ludwig II von Bayern" were done using long stretches of recording tape (like how Pink Floyd did it during the recording of "Dark Side of the Moon").
Total awesomeness, what he lacks in playing ability he more than makes up for in his vision. Nobody makes music like schulze I definitely think his brain is wired differently to any other musician. Just got hold of a mint historic edition it's amazing
inspirational music so i wrote a poem for it... painted words by lily****** shadows shadows everywhere red flame follows burning all in its path~~~ shadows made of air invisible once water burned by fire turned~~~ air lifts into clouds shadows there becomes red tinged at dusk high in sky~~~ sun burns shadows into haze over mountain tops appears or is it mountains of the moon~~~ sun moon shadows air into nothing-ness all will be as will thee and me~~~ and so it is...
Top muziek leren kennen in 1975 bij de brt muziek uit de kosmos :vraag heeft iemand het concert van klaus schulze uit dacht 1975 opgenomen en uitgezonden in drie deken bij de brt 2 vanuit de kathedraal in Brussel alvast bedankt .
Hi - can you upload the vinyl version of X - best way of hearing KS. I am a fan of his - have been since 1979 and have found that the recordings from lps to cd just fail to overwhelm me. Side 4 of X is my all time favourite of his and he even managed to play a few chords of it for me at one of his concerts. I thought how kind. Glad to hear to like KS - how long have you been a fan?
