Berliner Schule by 
sssvnnn 
The "Berliner Schule" (Berlin school of electronic music)
was a small group of artists that invented a new form of electronic music in Berlin in the beginning of the 70`s.
They started with the idea of a contemporary technical but atmospheric sound that was never heard before. In the beginning (1970 TD: Electronic Meditations, 1972 Schulze: Irrlicht) they didn`t even have electronic instruments, because there were none.
The were creating simple electronical devices and used various technical instruments and oscillators to create sounds.
A soon as they`ve got the first Moog synthesizers that were handmade by Robert Moog in New York they were able to create a music that came close to the visions that they had.
The time between the invention of the Mini-Moog (1971)and the beginning of the digital aera(Schulze: Dig It 1980 - the first fully digitally recorded and released album) was the best time of the artists of the Berliner Schule.
