@@patrick2935 can't agree as it brings out something really unusual from time to time. Though I should say that didn't use RU-vid back then as often as these couple of years
What another crazy rarity...the Nightcrawlers are a legend for very Berlin School & Ambient fan...for good reasons! They were a fantastic duo doing magic with their analogue instruments. And for 1985 this is an extraordinary recording...its made in their home studio,think all of their cassettes & vinyls are really good,but some are more advanced in the sound quality. There you can hear how they start levitating all around them,ghosh! I like them since long. Just very hard to find these albums. They were as great like Klaus Schulze indeed! Or earlier Tangerine Dream. This here is one of their BEST! Its opening doors to another reality!😂❤️🔥🎉😊🤪
Crickets will chirp in time with music. Buddy Holly's three piece was recording in a garage and that happened, the crickets turned up on the tape and they liked it so they called the band "Buddy Holly and the crickets." That story is why the Beatles named themselves the BEATles... they intended to play "beat music" like the crikets.
@@FromTheRoomOfLittleEase Thanks for that info! Incidentally, on Cricket Lullaby by the Nightcrawlers, the crickets do seem quite loud and clear (just as loud as the synthesizers, if not louder!) - so I cant help being a tiny bit suspicious that their volume wasn't 'enhanced' somewhat... Of course, I'm not suggesting that the crickets volume was enhanced - maybe crickets really are that loud ?! Peter Gulch says that when the music was recorded, live crickets were outside his garage, so they just left them on the recording... But would they be this loud, since they were much further away from the microphone than the synthesizers were. What is your opinion on it?
beautifully hypnotic. projects such as this really demonstrate how much emotion can be channeled through minimal composition. big fan of the space themes, as well. cheers.
Sometimes older synth has a way of being abrasive but this album has been consistently peaceful and inspirational. I genuinely admire their passion for sound.
This is remarkable and has sent me down a rabbit hole in search of more information on this band. So ahead of its time in different aspects, thanks for the share.
@@thehiddendrive And that's not even counting the solo works of each member + another 13 albums under the name Xisle, which had both brothers from this trio alongside frequent collaborators Andrew Rath & Chuck Van Zyl. Crazy amount of stuff to explore!
@@TremblingBeauty Yeah so much creativity revolving around this one trio, I found the chuck van zyl while looking up their synkronos label. Such a gem that keeps showing new facets.
this was awesome! thanks for sharing it. i had never heard of this band before! if anyone wants something in a slightly similar vein, i recommend PANCHROMA by WATERWHEEL. hypnotic and low-fi just like this!! you can find the whole album on YT as well.
🐱The time of my childhood, when musical caballah began, the time🎶 when I had it for the first time, whistled in my ears.. The time of such bands as Space, Zodiac and Secret Service.Then science fiction and disco are fascinating, and euphoria reached the stars💎
Just discovering your channel (and subscribed). I want to thank you about what you do, to make people to rediscover the early synth scene. (I bought my 1st synth and began to record my work in these times...) 👍
Oh nice, this is cool. Love hearing old rare tapes. Would of loved to see them live in the day that acid-y bass mixed with vangellis-y synth lines is really lush. Added these to mine and my partners list of things to vibe to🤗💜🙌🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️😜🫂😋
The problem with tape is storage + giveaways ! Every composition I did that went on cassette from the mid Eighties- early 2000’s,either disappeared or was given away.. The remaining ones where eaten buy mid old decrepid tape player double deck with Fast dubbing 😂
This upload is the vinyl LP version which has Spacewalk as the B side as opposed to the cassette version which is the opposite way around. I just chose the cassette artwork because it's prettier :)
I wondered this too, because I thought "nightcrawlers" might be an Always Sunny reference, and they are from Philadelphia too. But there seems to be mentions of it elsewhere online going pretty far back, so I'm thinking not a counterfeit.
fun stuff but not sure about "progressive" for 1985. sounds like electronic music from the 1930's to 1970's... Johanna Beyer, Herbert Elmert, Oskar Sala, Steven Halpern, Bruce Miller & Rick Miller, etc... particularly sounds 70's.
