About this item

Sounds of celestial beauty and infernal force: Brockmann // Bargmann (Ex-Camera) celebrate keys, guitars and effects Esteemed for their improvisational audacity, hurtling forwards to a motorik beat, there is another side to the Berlin "Krautrock Guerilla" trio Camera which sees them explore landscapes of sound. This is exactly what the two founder members Franz Bargmann (guitar) and Timm Brockmann (keyboards) present to us on their purely instrumental debut album "Licht". Harmonic and melancholic, tender and tough, planar and rhythmic - yet never dull.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Half-way between the vast progressive sound sculptures of Pink Floyd and the astral arpeggios and twinkling oscillators of Kraftwerk lie Brockmann // Bargmann (and Camera). Grand, climaxing pieces built upon subtle foundations of ambience and percussion, blooming into soaring otherworldly cosmic trips. If you like Caverns Of Anti-matter, this is a cert.
