180 gram vinyl LP

Reissue of an amazing, late Kraut-rocket mixing echo-laden guitar, electronics and field recordings originally issued on David Elliott aka Pump's YHR tape label, now presented with two previously unreleased bonus tracks. Acclaimed in the Krautrock scene, Gunter Schickert is the most closely associated with the repetitive echoes of his distinctive guitar sound. Following "Samtvogel" (1974) and "Uberfallig" (1979), he released "Kinder in der Wildnes", a collection of songs from the 1981 to 1983 period. The fact that the album appeared at all in 1983 owes less to Schickert and more to Steven and Alan Freeman, who sought him out for their Krautrock encyclopaedia The Crack in the Cosmic Egg. On learning that Schickert had heaps recordings in his archive, the Freeman brothers proposed compiling an album. Schickert agreed and handed over material which the English YHC label had released in cassette form. 

Occasionally (above all on the two bonus tracks—available here for the first time), the influence of Neue Deutsche Welle (German New Wave), virtually omnipresent in that era, may be detected. For the most part, however, Schickert stays true to form and creates layers of hypnotic, filigree echo patterns, frequently accompanied by a dragging beat."
