Artist: DUNKELZIFFER
Title: Live
Label: CAPTAIN TRIP (JAPAN)
Format: CD
Price: $18.00
Catalog #: CT 058
"German mystic group, playing percussive space reggae. Featuring Damo Suzuki (ex-Can)." This is a previously unreleased live recording, from Cologne 1985, and is a CT exclusive release (the following 2 CDs are licensed from the band's FunfUndVierzig label in Germany). Dunkelziffer started recording for Pure Freude in 1982, but Suzuki did not join until 1984 with their In The Night album. Although very 80s sounding with some new wave lapsings, these albums feature long percussive-groove tracks, experimental/raw edges and the occasional transcending moment. Damo's vocals distinctly hover across the top, and Can fanatics need to hear these.

Title: In The Night
Label: CAPTAIN TRIP (JAPAN)
Format: CD
Price: $18.00
Catalog #: CT 059
Reissue of their second album, originally issued in1984. Their first release after Damo Suzuki joined the band. The slickest and most pop-like of the three in terms of production quality.


Artist: DUNKELZIFFER
Title: III
Label: CAPTAIN TRIP (JAPAN)
Format: CD
Price: $18.00
Catalog #: CT 060
Reissue of their third album from 1986 with bonus single/sampler tracks. The most Can-like in spirit and probably the place to start with these.


Artist: DUNKELZIFFER
Title: Colours and Soul
Label: CAPTAIN TRIP (JAPAN)
Format: CD
Price: $18.00
Catalog #: CT 158
The fourth Dunkelziffer CD to be released via Captain Trip and the group's Fünfundvierzig label. It includes their earliest EP recordings from 1982, which were originally released by the legendary Pure Freude label (before Can vocalist Damo Suzuki became involved with them). These tracks are pretty classic new wave ethno trance and have certainly aged well. This CD also includes various outtakes from 1983, which are also pre-Damo and of interest. If Can-tangibles are what it takes to get you excited, Reebop Kwaku Baah is a main percussionist for Dunkelziffer and Jaki Liebezeit contributed bongos to one track!
