Avant-garde nightmare music, simultaneously cosmic and industrial, created by a German trio comprising Hans-Joachim Roedelius, Dieter Moebius and producer Conny Plank, men whose influence on experimental music would prove both profound and long-lasting. Cluster consists of three pieces, created using electronics, treated instruments, tape manipulation, noise generators. Each piece is titled simply by its duration, adding to the album’s enigmatic allure. Take Cluster for a trip into all-consuming darkness at the nucleus of a death star.
