Camera are a current krautrock outfit, apparently with predilection for
performing impromptu shows in public locations, and this is their debut. A
3-piece based in Berlin, Camera are modern-day upholders of the krautrock
aesthetic, heavily influenced by both Neu! and Harmonia especially. And in fact,
they've earned the blessing of their heroes, having played live in collaboration
with Michael Rother (Neu!, Harmonia, etc.) and Dieter Moebius (Cluster,
Harmonia, etc.). This debut recording features eight tracks of
live-in-the-studio, semi-improvised, mostly instrumental jams that indeed
"radiate" the classic krautrock vibe. Krautrock fans will for sure hear echoes
of a lot of the greats: Neu!, Can, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Harmonia, Agitation
Free, La Dusseldorf, etc. And anyone into other kraut-loving bands of today,
like Circle, Cave, Wooden Shjips, and Hills among 'em, should check this out
forthwith...
