Nachtfalter

Released on the legendary label Brain, Guenter Schickerts debut Samtvogel (1975) was one of the most significant guitar albums of the Krautrock era. Points of comparison from todays perspec-tive are Syd Barrett or Pink Floyds more adventurous early recordings. Schickerts follow-up Ueberfallig of 1980 was released on the equally legendary Sky label. Once again a milestone recording, it showcased Schickerts hypnotic echo guitar which developed into one of the hallmarks of the Krautrock sound.Schickerts new album Nachtfalter, translating as moth in English, carries on from these begin-nings, making it hard to believe that he has in the meantime reached pension age. Recorded during the scorching hot summer of 2018, Nachtfalter shows the pioneer of the echo guitar sound his very best. Here Schickert was assisted by Andreas Spechtl (Ja, Panik) who recorded the album and played the drums. They form a truly winning team: Spechtl selected the best moments of Schickerts guitar tracks, mixed them while also supplying some own loops.
