Out Of Focus

Band, DE
Rock and Jazz

Out Of Focus was a German "Krautrock" rock fusion band, formed in late-1968 in Munich, existing 5 years or so. They took their name from a Blue Cheer track, but had also been listening to Soft Machine and Xhol Caravan, and rapidly established a distinctive style blending rock and jazz, psychedelic overtones. A unique facet was the profound socio-political awareness of Moran Neumüller's songs. Although typically Munich styled (with Embryo and Sahara connections) they are often compared to Canterbury fusion and Scandinavian jazz-rock acts. After the band split, main-man Regius Dreschler went to Embryo (3) for a while and then established his own project: Kontrast (11).
