Picking up some juicy remastered digipaks of Harmonia, Cluster, Amon Duul II, Guru Guru and Klaus Schulze at a recent trip to Amoeba on Haight inspired a new Kosmische kick. I just learned that Harmonia have been performing again. They'll be at the New York All Tomorrow's Parties on September 20 with the likes of Om, Polvo, Wooden Shjips, and the next day My Bloody Valentine. They also play on July 25 in Pasadena. I hope they come to Chicago, though to be honest, their music works just as great as a backdrop to reading/housework/sexytime/bedtime. Sadly, Klaus Dinger passed away in March, otherwise a joint Neu!/Cluster/Harmonia/La Dusseldorf tour would have been AWESOME. I also updated my Krautrocksampler: German Kosmische Music piece, plus a list of my top 70 or so favorites.

Lovely track, I've been picking up some of these remasters myself. This music still makes me feel the same way: like I'm on a happy train ride and my life is still ahead of me, full of promise.
