VA - Electric Junk, A Journey Through Deutsche Rock, Psych and Kosmische 1970-1978 [2025] (4 x CDs)

KRAUTROCK

VA - Electric Junk, A Journey Through Deutsche Rock, Psych and Kosmische 1970-1978 [2025] (4 x CDs)

If you're intrigued by the boundary-pushing sounds of 1970s German rock, then Electric Junk: A Journey Through Deutsche Rock, Psych and Kosmische 1970-1978 is a deep and rewarding listen. This 4-CD box set, curated by Cherry Red Records, a sonic archive, mapping the evolution of krautrock and experimental music during a time of cultural upheaval and artistic revolution.

This set brings together an impressive lineup, featuring Tangerine Dream, Faust, Popol Vuh, and Klaus Schulze, alongside lesser known yet equally visionary acts such as Guru Guru, Eloy, Jane, and Electric Sandwich. These musicians weren’t merely performers; they were sonic architects, building vast soundscapes that transcended conventional rock. Their work blurred genres, weaving together elements of psychedelia, jazz, ambient, and avant-garde electronics, resulting in a uniquely German countercultural movement.

One of the most compelling aspects of this box set is its extensive liner notes, which serve as a guided tour through this pioneering scene. It’s an intellectual exercise as much as a listening experience; an invitation to explore how music can challenge perceptions, expand consciousness, and redefine artistic expression.

If you appreciate music that dares to be different, this collection is a fascinating document of a movement that reshaped the sonic landscape. (B)

VA - MSR Madness Vol.1 - Vol. 6 [1991-2006] (6 x CDs)

MSR MADNESS

VA - MSR Madness Vol.1 - Vol. 6 [1991-2006] (6 x CDs)

Stepping into the world of MSR Madness is like discovering a hidden corner of music history where raw creativity and quirky humor collide. Each volume in this enigmatic series offers a glimpse into a realm of outsider music, where every track is a testament to earnest, unpolished expression. You can almost hear the passion and spontaneity in every song, a reminder that art thrives in unexpected places.

Originally, the series was known for its four volumes, but over time, enthusiasts have uncovered additional releases, expanding the narrative into a captivating six-volume collection. This expansion only deepens the mystery, inviting both casual listeners and devoted collectors to explore what may very well be one of the most fascinating chapters in DIY music culture. There’s a certain charm in the series’ refusal to adhere to conventional musical production, it’s raw, it’s unfiltered, and it has a unique energy that modern recordings often miss.

What makes MSR Madness truly irresistible is its celebration of imperfections. Each song carries an authenticity that resonates with those who appreciate music made from pure, unrefined emotion rather than commercial polish. The series serves as a living archive of creative freedom, showcasing moments when amateur songwriters transformed their words into unpredictable sonic adventures. In a world where music is frequently sanitized and perfected, MSR Madness boldly reminds us of the beauty found in unvarnished artistic expression.

Ultimately, exploring MSR Madness feels like joining a secret club of fans who cherish the offbeat, the obscure, and the extraordinary. It challenges you to find wonder in the imperfect and to celebrate the wild, unrestrained spirit of creativity; an enduring allure that keeps listeners coming back for more. Each listening session becomes a journey into a forgotten era of creative freedom, where raw imperfection charms and every note narrates its own story. (B)

VA - Rhythm & Blues Goes Rock & Roll Vol. 1-5 [2022] (5 x CDs)

The "Rhythm & Blues Goes Rock & Roll" series on Atomicat Records is an engaging journey into the vibrant world where classic rhythm & blues evolved into the raw energy of rock & roll. Clocking in with five albums, this series is a heartfelt homage that shines a spotlight on Caucasian men and women, hailing from a variety of musical backgrounds, who took classic R&B tunes and reimagined them in ways that were uniquely their own. Atomicat Records, renowned for its dedication to digging up and preserving vintage sounds, brings together a collection that not only pays tribute to pioneers of the genre but also shines a light on some of the more obscure yet fascinating interpretations that emerged during the mid-1950s to early 1960s. This series offers a fascinating snapshot of a musical crossroads where diverse influences converge.

Throughout the series, a wide array of artists, from celebrated names to forgotten gems, step forward to deliver personal interpretations that add their own creative stamp to timeless tunes. Their energetic renditions transform familiar melodies into fresh, dynamic experiences that keep you on your toes. It's not just about reviving old hits; it's about reinventing them, allowing each performance to breathe new life into the original spirit of the music.

One standout release in the collection features a well-curated selection that perfectly encapsulate the musical experimentation of the time. Here, the energetic interplay of American and Australian influences forms an engaging musical dialogue, underscoring the international reach of rock & roll. The album evinces a deep appreciation for the cross-pollination of styles, painting a vivid picture of the creative ferment that sparked innovation across continents.

What makes the whole series so captivating is its dual role as both a historical archive and a living expression of creative reimagination. It is a celebration of the moment when musical boundaries were being redrawn, a time when every note told a story of passion, rebellion, and artistic evolution. If you are a longtime collector or a newcomer to vintage rock & roll, this series invites you to experience the raw, unfiltered spirit of music that continues to inspire and resonate today. (B)
