Augenstern
Best Of Augenstern
Compil. DK 1991 on Fønix Musik label
Electronic (Ambient)
At the beginning of the seventies, the musicians Steve Schroyder and Gene Gross experienced the rise of a new electronic music. Even then they were experimenting with possibilities of rendering cosmic dimensions accessible to experience through sounds. In 1980, Steve and Gene together formed the group 'Augenstern'. Their first studio recording was the MC 'Strahlen', which met with acclaim in far-reaching New Age circles. Study of harmonic structures in nature gave rise to the idea of a 'plant music', which was first performed on the occasion of the Freiburg State Garden Show and recorded on their next MC 'Blütenklang'. The listener here can experience from within the resonance of the forms and beauties of flowers. This CD samples the best tracks out of 'Strahlen' and 'Blütenklang', including a special remix-version of 'Center Of My Cosmic Heart' as well as one of the Augenstern's greatest hits on live tours: 'Venus Di Monaco'. Note: Track times listed are actual from the CD, not from what is printed on the artwork.
