Neu
Faust
Can
Amon Düül I & II
Popol Vuh
here you go, every krautrock thread on /mu/ condensed in one post without the usual meme argument about which of Can's albums is the best
Radiohead

Yes, it has krautrock essense, but there is absence of orientation to the rythm. It reminds of oratory of some kind
>>65703185
yeah, if one is called krautrock and the other zeuhl, they're obviously the same thing
>>65703150
Radiohed is not krautrock

Underappreciated Can song right here
And also krautrock should be from germany

Saw Camera last weekend, shit was cash
What about this more obscure band? C93 did a cover and I think Dave even signed them for a re-release or something. I find them refreshingly experimental while still Kraut, plus irritating influencial to C93

>C93
C93 is deafinetly not a krautrock band
Essential to krautrock is actualy ravelian moduliation and progressivenes of music around rythm. Like in Ravels Bolero https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r30D3SW4OVw

There's not a lot of bands that are on par with Can.
Check out
>Neu!
for hypnotic percussion and pleasant consonant clean jams (similar to La Dusseldorf)
>Faust
for interesting post-production collages made out of abstract synths, subtle compositions and psych jams (debut/faust tapes)
Later albums are more conventional and coherent in terms of song structure, feature medieval vibes sometimes.
>Amon Duul II
for teutonic psych/prog jams with mystic/tribal/occasionally dark overtones.
>Ash Ra Tempel
Think Amon Duul II, only it's much darker and much more improvisational. Also ambient pieces here and there.
>early Popol Vuh, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Later Cluster
for spacy progressive electronic/ambient works.
>Early Cluster
alien-like dark ambient, feels like you're stuck on your ship in a cosmic ship graveyard
>Mid to late Popol Vuh
for classical/traditional-based new age music (although some albums (like Einsjager & Siebenjager) have drums and feel more like Van der Graaf Generator)
>first two Kraftwerk albums
fairly boring improvisations with some brilliant spacy pieces here and there
>anything after that
synthpop
>Cosmic Jokers, Brainticket, Embryo, Guru Guru, Achim Reichel
Psych/prog jams, some are fun, others are just boring

Popol Vuh are hard to get into, I'm still not feeling In den Gärten Pharaos.
Red me good ostrock

I'm not a a huge fan of Vuh, but I think the title track is absolutely fantastic. I also like Affenstunde a lot, it's incredibly eerie (something I'd only find with Cluster's early albums, however while Cluster is industrial and cold, Affenstunde is mystical and trippy), but also less focused than In den Garten, so I wouldn't say it's great for active listening.
For getting into Popol Vuh I'd suggest Hosianna Mantra and Einsjager & Siebenjager
>>65704450
>Hosianna Mantra
Guess I'll try that then.
>>65704476
Neoclassical piano battles trippy guitar leads with a korean falsetto and a choir machine
Einsjager & Siebenjager is kind of like that but it sounds much more like rock because of drums

Pure fucking bliss, like floating on air
