Title:	Anna
Label:	STAUBGOLD (GERMANY)
Format:	LP
Price:	$12.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 008LP

"First solo release (vinyl-only) by this member of Cologne electronic duo Klangwart. Following the paths of Klangwart's debut album Köln-Olpe, Reuber mixes his idea of Krautrock and minimalism with elements of musique concrete and a strong sense for subtle structures. Besides the usual electronic instruments Reuber uses trombone, voice, bass -- played by Jyrgen Hall (Groenland Orchester) -- and various percussion instruments. Comes in full-color cover designed by Lichtbad. A passionate exploration of rhythm and sound."

Title:	Ruhig Blut
Label:	STAUBGOLD (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 018CD

"Ruhig Blut (meaning 'keep cool') is the second solo release by Timo Reuber, member of Cologne electronic duo Klangwart, after his amazing debut album Anna from last year (Staubgold 8). The album is about swinging between poles -- between A and B, city and countryside, living and working, ambient and beat. Reuber takes the artistic freedom and psychedelic spirit of the '70s, electronic equipment of the 80s and a 90s sound aesthetic to create his very own music for the new decade."

Title:	Kintopp
Label:	STAUBGOLD (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 048CD

"Kintopp, the acclaimed Cologne musician's third album, is his best and most complete to date. Reuber draws from many years of experience in the field of psychedelic electronic music, both solo and as one half of the duo Klangwart (with Markus Detmer) with whom he recorded two full-length albums ('Köln-Olpe', 'Zwei'). Kintopp (a colloquial German expression for 'cinema') narrates a movie; instead of words, it creates images in the mind of the listener. In the style of a collage, associative sounds and sequences from various different musical contexts were reassembled and interwoven with each other. The new musical pieces thus composed offer plateaus rich in imagery and emotion -- a point of departure for the audience's imagination, travelling alongside the story or beyond it. About Reuber's first album Anna (staubgold 8) Vital Weekly wrote: 'The result is a cosmic trip with sounds moving everywhere, very vivid. With some of the overtones I was reminded of Steve Reich on acid with electricity up his you know what. It's very pleasant music to sit through, read the newspaper and enjoy life'."

Title:	Südpol
Label:	STAUBGOLD (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.50
Catalog #:	STAUB 075CD

Cologne electronic musician Reuber (one half of the duo Klangwart, along with Markus Detmer) presents his fourth album on Staubgold, Südpol (trans. "South Pole"). Reuber creates unusual electronic pastiches that weave a massive selection of esoteric and unexpected samples into a stunning, vibrant patchwork that constantly pulls in different directions. Much in the same way that Reuber so successfully welded image with associative sounds and sequences from various different musical contexts on his previous release, Kintopp, Reuber's instinct for unusual juxtapositions goes well beyond the postmodern irony of incorporating aboriginal music into a psychedelic techno collage -- he has a true ear for combinations that work. Much like shifting curtains of the Aurora Australis, Südpol is cosmic.
