April 27, 2025

For more than 50 years, the composer, musician, and producer Klaus Schulze rolled out his extensive sounds and has played his legendary sequences. He shaped the "Berlin School" and was most influential for various music styles that came of electronic music.

Following the release of the album 101, Milky Way in November 2024, Bon Voyage (Live Hamburg Audimax 1981), another historic document from the archives of the master of the Moog synthesiser, has been released today via SPV Recordings.

Get Bon Voyage here.

To coincide with the release of the album, a live performance video of the track"Moulin Bleu" has been shared. It is an excerpt from the bonus DVD included with the 2CD version.

Watch the live performance of "Moulin Bleu" Below:

In November 1981, Klaus Schulze was scheduled to go on a two-week tour through Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and France, which was to end in the Audimax Hamburg.

Multi-instrumentalist Manuel Göttsching accompanied Klaus on tour as a special guest. This recording of the Hamburg Audimax concert was originally intended as a spontaneous, internal documentation — a nice souvenir for everyone from a wonderful tour. Now, after more than 40 years, this release allows all fans to share in the wonderful memories.

With this in mind, we wish you — certainly also on behalf of Klaus and Manuel — a safe journey. Bon Voyage!

ORDER "BON VOYAGE (LIVE HAMBURG AUDIMAX 1981)" NOW

"Klaus Schulze's music has never been as relevant as it is now. The world has finally caught up with a true pioneer. More than ever is Klaus' work the perfect balance between the soul and technology. Electrons as messengers of romance. Acute and profound understanding of electronics as conduits of all things human. A master, an influence and influencer on countless others, still connecting us all with a deep sense of humanity and mystery." — Hans Zimmer, December 2021

Through his collaboration with Hans Zimmer for the Oscar-winning soundtrack to the remake of the classic film 'Dune', desert fever has broken out again in Klaus Schulze. "I needed more of that 'Spice,'" Schulze recounts. "From there I felt completely unleashed and just played and played… at the end of that second private ‘Dune‘ journey I realized: ‘Deus Arrakis‘ became another salute to Frank Herbert and to that great gift of life in general.“ Since his beginnings in bands like 'Tangerine Dream' and 'Ash Ra Tempel' or in his over 50 solo albums from 'Irrlicht' to Mirage', 'X' and 'Dune' to 'Farscape', 'Kontinuum', 'Silhouettes' and now 'Deus Arrakis', in his productions under the pseudonym 'Richard Wahnfried' or the numerous film scores and collaborations with artists like Arthur Brown, Michael Shrieve, Rainer Bloss, Lisa Gerrard or most recently Hans Zimmer: Klaus Schulze has always remained true to his unmistakable way of creating music and yet always remained open to the new, the innovative, the experimental.
