On the third of their Silberland compilations, Bureau B dive deeper into the ambient and experimental sides of German electronic music. Featuring both iconic pioneers and lesser-known artists, the collection showcases the genre’s expansive sonic landscapes and the quiet radicalism of early electronic innovation. Building on the motorik pulse of earlier volumes, Silberland Vol. 3 maps out the likes of Cluster & Eno and Roedelius through to rarities from Vono, Lapre, and Thomas Dinger. - Flying Out
On their last trip to Silberland, Bureau B hurtled along the chrome highways and glass skyways of the kosmische landscape, powered ever onwards in perpetual motorik motion. This time, however, the Hamburg imprint opt for an unhurried itinerary, coasting far beyond the familiar rhythmic terrain to explore crystal caverns and emerald pastures, immersing listeners in the ambient side of this alternative Allemagne. Building on the tape loops, tone poems, and minimalist compositions of the 60's avant-garde, these musicians utilised the sweeping scope of the synthesiser to create expansive meditations on outer-planetary escapism, human connection, and the natural world.
This collection is a testament to the evocative power of early electronic music. Each track serves as a portal, guiding us into a realm where sound becomes landscape, emotion, and narrative. This compilation invites you to explore the quiet revolutions, serene spaces, and deep introspection at the heart of German electronic music's formative years.
