Clara Mondshine
Memorymetropolis
Walter Bachauer has been an active part of Berlin's but all in all Germany's electronic and progressive music scene as long as he lived with his greatest achievements being the Meta Music festivals in Berlin in 1974, 1976 and 1978 while he worked as a line producer at RiasBerlin, the city's biggest radio station. In the early to mid '80s he got back to compose and play music under the pseudonym Clara Mondshine and this is his second out of three albums from 1983 'Memorymetropolis'. So let me take you on a little journey into the cosmic mind of late Mr. Bachauer for you may be rewarded with enlightenment. Easy listening melodies come in smaller doses here despite his fondness for the pop oriented side of the so called "Berlin School" electronics and the overall time in which he operated this project.
