For Namlook, the curiosity of Klaus Schulze and their collaboration on a level playing field of mutual respect was inspiring:
And so a legendary series of recordings was born. ‘Dark Side Of The Moog’ grew more or less unplanned to a sprawling, stately-sized series of eleven volumes recorded between 1994 and 2008, only ending with the early, tragic death of Pete on November 8th 2012.

Retrospectively, the approach to and exchange of music and ideas, the growing together and cross-pollination of emotion and logic, makes for a rewarding and fascinating listening experience that still holds its own today.
