Earthstar
Collected Works (5cd)
Earthstar was a project by American musician Craig Wuest. The band was assigned to the genre of electronic and ambient music. Although the musicians came from Utica, New York, many people pigeonholed them as krautrock. The band itself came out as ardent admirers of this style of music, especially of electronic artists such as Neu, Cluster, Roedelius and, above all, Klaus Schulze. Craig Wuest contacted Klaus Schulze, who was so impressed by Earthstar's talent that he invited the band to Germany to record and market their music. Now their four studio albums 'Salterbarty Tales', 'French Skyline', 'Atomkraft? No Thanks!' and 'Humans Only' are available on CD for the first time in this 'Collected Works' box and as a bonus there is the previously unreleased album 'Sleeper The Nightlifer', which was declined by the record company in 1979.
