Recorded entirely by Günter Schickert between June and September 1974, Samtvogel is a remarkable artifact of the German progressive electronic scene. Using nothing more than an electric guitar, his own voice, and a tape-echo device, Schickert crafted an album of wildly unpredictable, atmospheric compositions that set it apart from its contemporaries. Fans of Krautrock pioneers like Ash Ra Temple and Manuel Götsching will find much to admire in its echoed, hypnotic textures.
Samtvogel stands as one of the more compelling and distinctive releases to emerge from the early 1970s German experimental rock movement, impressing with its natural, free-flowing sound that feels as inventive today as it did fifty years ago. Now reissued by Bureau B, this is an essential listen for fans of progressive electronic music and anyone drawn to the raw, exploratory spirit of the era.
