Ashra

"Manuel Gottsching's first solo outing continuing the legacy of Ash Ra Tempel albeit in a much more spaced out and electronic domain more akin to Tangerine Dream. This album is awash with rich electronic tapestries, waves of undulating sound with gentle melodies bobbing up to the surface of the minimal but deep compositions." --  Manual Gottshing website

"The group was originally founded by guitarist Manuel Göttsching, keyboardist/drummer Klaus Schulze, and bassist Hartmut Enke in 1971. Ash Ra Tempel has exerted a relatively large influence on later space rock and krautrock bands." -- Wikipedia

These two albums offer different sides of Ashra; New Age of Earth has more ambient, atmospheric sounds and with Blackouts, the sound is more energetic and jazzy. Both are great and just as engaging as they did over 30 years ago.
