Additional information
TRACKS & TRACES contains previously unreleased works from the first meeting of Harmonia and Brian Eno in 1976. Harmonia: Michael Rother (guitar, keyboards, drum programming); Hans Joachim Roedelius (keyboards); Dieter Moebius (synthesizer, mini-harp). Additional personnel: Brian Eno (vocals, synthesizer, bass). Recorded in 1976--after Brian Eno had proclaimed them one of the best groups around--but not released until 20 years later, TRACKS & TRACES is a fascinating release not merely for Eno's participation but for the hints of music that would become mainstream in the future. Indeed, opening cut "Vamos Companeros" has an intense guitar line from Rother that in its nervous, choppy way suggests everything from Wire to Bauhaus, not to mention Eno's own noted production clients, U2. Having already created two excellent albums, the core Harmonia trio was easily placed to whip up a third, with Eno the wild-card factor that turned out to be a perfect addition. Contributing lyrics and singing at a time when he was steering away from both in his own solo work, much of the time Eno lets the band speak for itself musically, most notably adding snaking, quietly threatening basslines. Compositions range from the lengthy to just fragments, and while it feels at points more like a collection of sessions than necessarily a complete stand-alone album conceived as such, the end results are still worth hearing. The contemplative "By the Riverside," which could easily have turned up on Eno's BEFORE AND AFTER SCIENCE (where his related collaboration with Cluster, "By This River," appeared) is a slow treasure, a core keyboard loop providing the slow-paced rhythm. "Almost" is another killer, with a lead guitar/piano melody that's pure gentle heartbreak. If there's less of the glittering glaze of the earlier Harmonia albums, the explorations in ambient sound and mysterious and murky textures make for more than a fair exchange.
Reviews
The Wire (3/98, p.56) - "...As a sketchbook of ideas, TRACKS AND TRACES is interesting....'Sometimes In Autumn' conjures a beautifully bleak soundscape, with Rother's delay guitar ticking across vast space. The album closes with two 90 second miniatures...that are so exquisite, you're left asking why they don't go on forever..." Q (Magazine) (p.124) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[M]otoring along in finest Krautrock fashion in between moments of glacial beauty." Record Collector (magazine) (p.92) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's amazing to think that this is the sound of four men improvising electronics rather than painstakingly applying coat upon coat of gloss in the studio."

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
