Aural Films, an online record label (netlabel) that releases soundtrack albums for movies that do not exist, just announced a special Tribute Album for Klaus Schulze
Klaus sometimes said “At some point I’m sure I will retire – maybe in 2250? At which point, they will have to carry me out of this studio in a box!“ …
We all know this quote from Klaus from 2004, it was in every booklet of the re-releases of his back catalog. And each of us probably smiled and thought that it was rather unlikely that Klaus would live to be 303 years old – unfortunately. Now it’s 2022, and the box that comes out of the studio in the Lüneburg Heath is called DEUS ARRAKIS – no one would have guessed that it could actually contain Klaus Schulze’s requiem. And when you realize that the last piece on Klaus’ last album is called “Der Hauch des Lebens” (The Breath of Life) and fades away into silence at the end, not only spiritual people think of a kind of self- prophecy. DEUS ARRAKIS is a great, a worthy last album by Klaus – spherical, rhythmic, emotionally moving and full of depth and harmony. Klaus would say it is “floating”. Many great musicians and artists have passed away recently, and more of our heroes will inevitably follow – that’s life. It only strikes us more because we ourselves have grown older, and the artists of our youth are one by one approaching their twilight years. Klaus lived to be 74 – not enough for this incredibly great, creative and lovable person… but enough to become immortal through his wonderful music. There is music that touches, that fascinates and uplifts you. Sometimes only for a summer, sometimes a little longer. And there is music that lasts. Forever? Well, definitely for 303 years. And I’m pretty sure, long after that…
