Few bands match the pastoral beauty and majesty of Harmonia, the visionary German band that existed from 1973 to 1976. The ‘Krautrock’ supergroup, brought together Dieter Moebius and Hans-Joachim Roedelius of Cluster, and Michael Rother of NEU!, who were later joined by Brian Eno.
On Friday 23rd October Grönland Records will release the entire Harmonia back catalogue as a five vinyl box set, including previously unreleased material recorded 40 years ago at Harmonia HQ: Forst, Lower Saxony, Germany.
