Transparent vinyl with blue streaks. "In 1976 Michael Hoenig had a brief collaboration with Ash Ra Tempel's Manuel Göttsching in Berlin; a 48-minute recording of one of the sessions was released in 1995 under the title Early Water on Bernd Kistenmacher's Musique Intemporelle label. The album was deleted and unavailable for a long time. Now, finally, a re-issue of Early Water is available again. Michael Hoenig still remembers: 'While I had been working on the Departure From The Northern Wasteland album, Manuel Göttsching had asked me if I would team up with him for some concerts in France, since his group had just gone through one of its hibernation periods. We rehearsed in my place for three or four weeks. One evening we got a call regarding some missing guarantee, which ultimately led to the decision to cancel the tour. Just for fun, we played one of the planned sets for a last time. Even though I do not recall pressing a record button, somebody recently dug up a Revox tape of that very set. After performing some digital sonic archaeology on it, it was just released under the very appropriate title Early Water.' Manuel Göttsching adds: 'Unfortunately, some of the concert dates were not confirmed in time and we had to cancel the complete tour just on the day before we wanted to leave for France. On that evening, nevertheless, we recorded our last rehearsal 'just in case.' It turned out as a flowing harmonic piece, reflecting much of the optimistic air of 1976. Michael made his 'departure' to Los Angeles in the early 1980s. When we met again in November, 1994, I proposed to release this old track of ours. Michael took the original tape to Los Angeles, lovingly restored it and --well, here is it again!'"

Derrick May's remix of "Sueño Latino" originally released on Creative Label 1992.

Several remixes have followed the 1989 original release, but above all stands up Derrick May's "Illusion First Mix" that adds his typical tribal motifs to the euphoric carpet of stars, tropical birds and cowbells. This reissue of Detroit genius's version of "Sueño Latino" gives wings to your imagination making you fly on the most joyful nights of Ibiza.

A cult of house music reprinted on its thirty-year anniversary. Includes Derrick May "Illusion First Mix". "Sueño Latino," one of the most famous Ibiza summer anthems and a house music classic, encountered licensing difficulties upon its initial release due to an unauthorized and uncredited sample from Manuel Göttsching's E2-E4. Now, thirty years after its 1989 release, and long after the Paradise original went out of print, Dance Floor Corporation and Göttsching have decided to release this unique tune once again.

MG.ART presents a reissue of Manuel Gottsching's Dream & Desire, originally released in 1977. For 2019, this is a newly remastered and carefully re-edited version of the legendary 1977 studio recording for RIAS Berlin.
"The 1970s. The Vietnam War is slowly coming to an end; the RAF thrives and prospers; the first Achtundsechziger ('68 protestors) are actually planning to march through the institutions; rock and roll is getting heavier; and hardly noticed by the mainstream public, some West-Berlin musicians develop a world of sound, which later eventually became labelled as "Electronic Music". These compositions of slowly evolving soundscapes relating to the Minimal Music concept created a meditative mood. This was new; this was the Berliner Schule (Berlin school). Manuel was living right on the Ku-Damm (Kurfürstendamm), right in the city center, but in the rear building, shielded from the noise. Manu didn't have a sequencer. Everything that sounded like a sequencer was his highly focused guitar work. The slowly changing tone sequences for example; this was a physical accomplishment in itself. The musicians from Berlin, who worked in the same genre, were either friends, periodically played in Manuel's Ash Ra Tempel, or built up their own careers. The scene was small, but equipped with illustrious celebrities: Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, Harald Grosskopf, and Agitation Free. Manuel was able to start his international career pretty quickly, focusing on England, France and Japan. For the German middle-of-the-road-consciousness, these countries were as exotic as the winds on Jupiter, especially Japan, where Göttsching still enjoys superstar status. The RIAS studio had an old Farfisa compact organ that Manuel played and of which I was especially proud; it can be heard prominently here. Originally, the two tracks had been conceived for my one-hour radio feature at RIAS Berlin in summer 1977. Then, although being broadcast only once in Berlin and Belgium, they soon became cult amongst listeners, who taped, multiplied and distributed the tracks throughout Manuel's fan base. The revival of Dream & Desire is not nostalgia but an indication that the present will only be appreciated after acknowledging the past. The bonus track "Despair" was not part of the original radio-feature, but was composed and recorded around the same time in 1977, and fits perfectly in style and sound. Manuel's music has been with me for now almost 50 years. Dream & Desire is beautiful -- what more can I say." --Olaf Leitner, March 2019

2021 restock; In celebration of the 2016 35th anniversary of the December 12, 1981, recording of Manuel Göttsching's legendary E2-E4, one of electronic music's most influential recordings, Göttsching's MG.ART label presents an official reissue, carefully overseen by the master himself. Includes six-page booklet with notes and pictures.
"As the story is sometimes told, Göttsching stopped in the studio for a couple of hours in 1981 and invented techno. E2-E4 is the most compelling argument that techno came from Germany-- more so than any single Kraftwerk album, anyway. The sleeve credits the former Ash Ra Tempel leader with 'guitar and electronics', but few could stretch that meager toolkit like Göttsching. Over a heavenly two-chord synth vamp and simple sequenced drum and bass, Göttsching played his guitar like a percussion instrument, creating music that defines the word 'hypnotic' over the sixty minutes ... A key piece in the electronic music puzzle that's been name-checked, reworked and expanded upon countless times." --Mark Richardson, Pitchfork

Based on a sample of Manuel Göttsching's 1984 classic E2-E4, "Sueño Latino" (1989) remains one of the most famous balearic anthems and a true house music classic. This 12" contains two versions of the "Synthesis Mix" by one of the track's original producers, Ricky Persi, with the collaboration of Riccardo "ohmguru" Rinaldi. They're both truly emotional journeys, and with their vintage synths, they add a new brick to the never-ending story of this timeless tune.

LP version. 2016 repress; originally released in 2006. Many listeners know Manuel Göttsching from his 1984 masterpiece E2-E4 (MGART 424CD/904LP), which has been sampled on numerous occassions -- think "Sueno Latino" to start. The plethora of further re-recordings includes works by Derrick May and Joe Claussell and a bootleg by Carl Craig, all of which proves how iconic and enduring Göttsching's work is. Joaquin Joe Claussell Meets Manuel Göttsching is the first attempt to bring these once-illegal mixes to a broader and wider audience. It contains the first official release of two very rare tribute mixes of '70s Göttsching classics, carefully remodeled by Joe Claussell (a 22-minute version of "Deeper Distance" and an 11-minute version of "Ain't No Time For Tears"). The last words, however, are left to MG himself, with "Shuttlecock," a 19-minute excursion that has Göttsching improvising over a soft carpet of delayed bell sounds before the guitar fades away and the track deepens and thickens like a dark river sweeping along more and more motifs and harmonies. The three original concert recordings were first released on The Private Tapes Vol. 2 (Manikin, 1996); "Deep Distance" and "Shuttlecock" were recorded at the Bataclan in Paris, December 1976 and "Ain't No Time For Tears" was recorded in Berlin, August 1979.

2016 repress; originally released in 2005. Manuel Göttsching performed the picturesque electronic sounds of his seminal, epic four-part suite Die Mulde to accompany the art installation 34 mirrors R.S.V.P. by Mercedes Engelhardt, at the Denkmalschmiede Höfgen near the Mulde river in Germany, on September 6, 1997. The bonus track, "HP Little Cry," is based on a theme from 1981. In 2004, Göttsching added a guitar melody and dedicated the piece to a Norwegian fan, who gave the track its title.

2016 repress; originally released in 2007. Manuel Göttsching's performance at the Anoyo Prism festival on Mount Fuji in Japan, April 29, 2006. High-quality recording with highly sought-after tracks including "Shuttlecock." Göttsching performed the entire concert alone, accompanied by stunning visuals by a Polish graphic artist. He dug into his back catalog, coming up with new arrangements of classic material. The album opens with "Sunrain," which was originally released on the 1976 Ashra classic New Age of Earth. Göttsching takes the familiar, hypnotic sequencer pattern in a slightly different direction and extends the piece to nearly 15 minutes. The second track, "Saint and Sinner," was originally released on Concert for Murnau (2005). Göttsching takes it a step up from its laid-back studio counterpart, adding a bluesy Clapton-esque guitar lead. "Trunky Groove" debuted at this performance, and is a showcase of the psychedelic style that was the norm for Göttsching back in his very early days in Ash Ra Tempel. A techno-style rhythm is accompanied by a long drone and intense orchestrations before giving way to an effects-drenched guitar solo. "Die Mulde" is a 20-minute excerpt from Göttsching's 1997 long-form piece of the same name (MGART 301CD). It begins with the "Die Spiegel" section of the piece and shifts into the closing "Zerfluss" movement. As with "Saint and Sinner," Göttsching adds a guitar lead that is not present in the original version. Finally, to close the album, Göttsching presents another arrangement of the classic "Shuttlecock," which was originally released on the 1977 Ashra masterwork Blackouts (SPA 14759LP). The arrangement is similar to the 1976 live version that appeared on the 1996 CD The Private Tapes Vol. 1 (later released on Joaquin Joe Claussell Meets Manuel Göttsching (MG 501CD/601LP, 2006)), but definitely has a modern twist. Göttsching's guitar playing is front and center here and is stellar -- almost like taking a trip back to the mid-'70s.
