The Berlin project Sprung Aus Den Wolken was part of the "Geniale Dilletanten" movement in the early 1980s, along with Einstürzende Neubauten and Mechanik Destrüktiw Komandöh. SPRUNG AUS DEN WOLKEN Sprung aus den Wolken. Bureau B is pleased to make the recordings from these three sessions from the years 19 available on record for the first time, which, in addition to the live versions of selected album tracks, also contains exclusive, unreleased songs. The trio was invited three times by John Peel to record radio sessions in the BBC studios. With releases on labels such as Kitty-Yo, City Slang and Mute Records as well as concerts worldwide, the band has built a remarkable reputation. Pitchfork described their sound as "unmistakably digital, yet 100% human". From 1995 until they broke up in 2014, the group around Robert Lippok, Ronald Lippok and Stefan Schneider researched a unique sound between electronic music, ambient, post-melancholy and the further development of a new, free music like krautrock. Without a doubt, To Rococo Rot are an exception within the German music landscape. Follow up, Cluster II, has now reached it's 50th anniversary and to celebrate bureau b are releasing a limited anniversary edition, vinyl only, gatefold sleeve limited to a 1000 copies. Their debut album ("Cluster 71") was in Wire Magazine's "One Hundred Records That Set The World On Fire" list.
A change in direction and musical differences moved Moebius and Roedelius to split from Schnitzler after which the duo recorded 10 regular studio albums between 19. Cluster (or Kluster as they were in the beginning) were founded in 1970 in Berlin by Conrad Schnitzler, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius. There is some truth in all of these notions. Some credit them with having invented ambient music, others as pioneers of synthesizer pop, whilst to some they are firmly embedded in the krautrock universe. Cluster can be counted among the most important international protagonists of the electronic avant-garde.
