Klaus Schulze

Klaus Schulze, composer, musician, and producer, born in Berlin, is internationally recognized as THE pioneer of electronic music and master of the Moog synthesizer. He shaped the so-called 'Berlin School' and significantly influenced all styles that emerged from electronic music. Many of the great international DJs affectionately call him the 'Godfather of Techno'. For more than 50 years, he has been rolling out his monumental soundscapes, playing his famous sequences and creating the unique 'Schulze atmosphere' – his 'Musique Planante'. From his beginnings in bands like 'Tangerine Dream' and 'Ash Ra Tempel' or in his more than 60 solo albums from 'Irrlicht' and 'Moondawn' to 'Mirage', 'X' and 'Dune' up to 'Moonlake' and 'Deus Arrakis', in his productions under the pseudonym 'Richard Wahnfried' or the numerous film scores and collaborations with artists such as Arthur Brown, Michael Shrieve, Marian Gold, Lisa Gerrard or most recently Hans Zimmer: Klaus Schulze has always remained true to his unmistakable way of creating music and yet always remained open to new, innovative, experimental ideas.
