1. Original OHR - 56.007 ... the real OHR underground first press
   
2.                ...ANNEXUS QUAM were hot in the heels of the earliest Krautrock experiences such as Amon Duul II, Can or Xhol Caravan but instantly conjured up a unique spaced out style that is an instrumental journey into the cosmos and beyond with only drugged out nonsensical moans providing the only vocals on board.

4. This is really an extended jam session based in a predominantly acoustic environment in an Indo-raga meets free form jazz and rock experience. The album is quite chilled out and plods along at a slow speed as it takes elements from many musical arenas and rides a sonic wave to infinity. Not as structured as their contemporaries in the songwriting department but quite successful in taking the psychedelia to the maximum levels. OSMOSE is one of the earliest examples of the kosmische Krautrock scene that has a timeless feel as the zeitgeist of the early movement transcended the place and time where it emerged. One of my favorites of the trippy side of the Kraut scene but i'm equally fond of the second and final album "Beziehungen."

   ... THE "THE FAN MAN" REFLECTS FURTHER ....  
7. 
    This little known masterpiece of kosmische psych from Germany from 1970 very much defines the 'krautrock' sub-genre evoking a highly hallucinogenic atmosphere and trippy ambience that the German experimental rockers were known for.

9. Annexus Quam's distinction on this their debut album was that they developed an otherworldly and mystical atmosphere from a loose improvisational framework of a jazz/ fusion format containing woodwinds, flute, and keyboards, in addition to the tradtional bass, drum, guitar. In each of the four divisions of the title track, the band settles into a groove and organically develop increasingly hypnotic and effect loaded soaring improvisations which literally invoke a feeling of being carried away into space. Unlike most fusion, the performances are not virtuosic, but each instrument improvises into the basic groove of the song and carries the music into avant garde and psychedelic textures invoking an atmosphere much like Pink Floyd's 'A Saucerful of Secrets' or 'Ummagamma'. There is excellent percussion throughout and beautifully integrated musicianship. This is an essential recording for psych krautrock fans everywhere ...
