Klaus Schulze - Shadowlands (2013)


Synth music legend Klaus Schulze's forty-first solo studio album. Two and a half hours of pulsing synths punctuated by Thomas Kagermann's violin, flute, and vocals, as well as vocal contributions from Lisa Gerrard, Australian singer Julia Messenger, and femme fatale Chrysta Bell, whose album I posted the other day. At such a length, and with only subtle variation in sound, Shadowlands undoubtedly requires patience, but, given the proper mindset, it can take you to strange and beautiful places.

Track listing:
-Disc One-
1. Shadowlights
2. In Between
3. Licht und Schatten
-Disc Two-
1. The Rhodes Violin
2. Tibetan Loops

At the angle of an angel
