ABOUT THIS ITEM

Founded in West Berlin in late 1967 by German artists, The Zodiak Free Arts Lab, also known as the Zodiak Club, was a short-lived but highly influential experimental live music venue. It was a musicians' paradise since The Zodiac Free Arts Lab was filled with all kinds of instruments, amps and speakers free for everyone to play and experiment with.

Four decades later Argy had the idea to revive the club's concept. After a short period of time he opened his own private space in Berlin to jam with colleagues and friends. Guests were personally invited to join in with the variety of happenings such as live music sessions, conversations and other bizarre or eccentric experiences. Argy's collaboration with Manuel Göttsching on "Sunrain" released on White Days Records in 2010 also tipped him in the direction of this new musical journey. So here he brings us the debut Zodiac Free Arts Club set, an LSD-dipped album that pays homage to the krautrock / kosmische musik innovators he admires most such as Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Vangelis, Neu!, Popol Vuh and others.
