Additional Information from Movie Mars

Product Description
If the triumph of the psychedelic explosion in the 1960s was to upend the traditional relationship between listener and entertainer--i.e., experiencing music became not about following a strict melody and chord structure but about the physical exhilaration of sound itself--then ambient electronic music fulfilled that destiny best. In the early '70s, electronic music had nebulous boundaries, and no one epitomized the nexus between Krautrock, psychedelia, Stockhausen, and space rock more than Kluster and its offshoot project, Cluster.
Cluster, the duo of Dieter Mobius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius, formed after Conrad Schnitzler left Kluster, the pioneering German space rock trio. CLUSTER II, their second studio outing, is a classic of proto-ambient music. The album's six tracks ooze and continually unfold with layered atmospheric soundscapes that bleed into one another, creating a mesmerizing whole. Hardly sonic wallpaper, CLUSTER II pulses with the excitement and alienation of deep space exploration itself, and beautifully captures the moment when psychedelia begat ambient, just before synthesizers and the New Age set turned the genre into background music for massage therapy sessions.
