Bureau B releases a limited 3-LP Boxset to celebrate Roedelius’ 80th anniversary!

During the legendary Forst years Roedelius had a private workspace with a Farfisa organ, a Revox-A77 tape machine, an echo device and a synthesizer which he borrowed from the Cluster studio next door now and again. Here he experimented, practised, allowed his imagination to flow, at any hour of the day or night, whenever he was not in the studio with Dieter Moebius and/or Michael Rother at work on new Cluster or Harmonia material. Roedelius always let the tape run, in order to analyze the ideas thus captured more effectively on repeated listening.

With “Roedelius Tape Archive 1973-1978” for the first time ever this Roedelius audio sketchbook has been digitalised and available to the public. The boxset offers us a deep insight into the creative process of his music. Fleeting notes, slivers of ideas, so to speak, moments of inspiration. Finger exercises, experiments in harmony, studies in rhythm are also preserved on these magnetic tapes.

Release date: October 24th 2014!

Legendary composer and musician John Zorn looks on artist Agnes Martin as a significant influence. “Dark River,” from his 1995 album Redbird, was inspired by Martin, and in December 2016 he is giving performances at the Guggenheim in which he will debut two compositions also informed by Martin—“Praise” and “Blue Stratagem.” In this track, Zorn discusses the impact of Martin’s work on his music.
