Harmonia's "Deluxe," released on August 20, 1975, is a seminal work in the krautrock and space rock genres, recorded in the band's own studio in Forst, Germany, with Conny's mobile equipment. This album is a testament to the collaborative genius of Harmonia, a supergroup that masterfully blended the rhythmic precision of NEU! with the organic, human-driven textures of analog instrumentation. The six-track collection, including standout pieces like "Deluxe (Immer weiter)" and "Monza (Rauf und runter)," showcases the band's ability to create immersive soundscapes that are both hypnotic and intricate. With a runtime of just over 42 minutes, "Deluxe" is a concise yet profound exploration of experimental rock, making it a captivating listen for fans of progressive and electronic music. The album's original release on the Brain Records label, later reissued by Grönland, underscores its enduring legacy in the genre.
