Synopsis

Album Description
On Trance Appeal, Schulze forges links between traditional and modern art, the Berlin School and rave society, being audible and danceable. Excellent. ("Keyboards"/Germany, July 1996) Trance Appeal rolls like a wandering boulder through the airy spaces of ambient techno. Sometimes there's an aggressive dance beat but then it will fall away into a chasm where the background string synth pad meanders like a broad, hazy river. Odd sounds swoop towards you and then away, moving with stiff fluidity like computer-animated vultures. Just when you start to get bored, the sonority will change dramatically - Every tune is organized in its own way. Richard Wahnfried and Jörg Schaaf composed and arranged, Klaus Schulze produced and mixed this incredible album. Klaus Schulze first attracted attention as a member of the German progressive rock band, Tangerine Dream. Following the release of their debut LP, Electronic Meditation, he departed for a solo career. Klaus' recorded work typically features extended pieces sometimes filling an entire album built around computer-generated synthesizers and other specially programmed electronic effects. Klaus Schulze remains a cult figure in the United States, where the bulk of his prolific output has until now been available only through the import bins. He is widely considered an avant-garde mainstay as well as a founding father of both the new-age space music and electronica genres.
