what a catalog, the man was a fuckin genius & educated me more than most, it saddens the heart this whole mortality trip when good people are culled

a genuine hero, came of age listening to his Jah Wobble collaborations after me old man introduced us to Can & German releases from that once in a generation era of sublime, healing music

Roedelius is in his 80's, but gonna dig through the crates for HC's tunes the rest of the week & let the music out into the realm of the living

Think about it. This was made in 1968 !!!

dont wanna spam the thread, so will leave these favourites, Canaxis is whole ritual unto itself

Dammit! Time to do the dead CAN dance

for the lapsed catholics

yeah full circle is a great one

love that he studied under stockhausen

his stuff with shortwave radio sampling is good. love this album with david sylvian:

RIP. I should really dig into his own catalogue more, I only know his Can work. and Cool in the Pool, which makes me lol.

it really is just going to be one after the other of all our favorite musicians in the coming years isn't it. RIP czukay, he was a brilliant and visionary mind in music.

I despise those occasional weeks where it seems like someone important is passing every other day

Czukay is one of those figures who was way ahead of his time in terms of artistic scope and experimentation - delving in ambient and world music long before those were established genres. TIL he almost didn't get into "rock music" but changed his mind after hearing "I Am The Walrus" 

Thanks cwmbrancity, zaphod, and Staadrengen for posting all of these tracks, as much as I know about his importance I too haven't dug into his catalogue as much as I should of before his passing

proto-d&b from the '60's, two copies on the turntables & you can go fkn nuts (sure theres a quantzied edit doing the rounds somewhere)

Can is the fucking best. Czukay was so far ahead of his time, such a talented and creative person. Massive respect
