Dieter Moebius Poll 1978-2011 [Update: RIP, July 2015]

Moebius & Tietchens - 20110812 Dockville Festival, Hamburg - Live versions of their forthcoming duo album, already finished, awaiting release, first time they've worked together since Liliental and they are not slacking. Hard to tell who is doing what in this one; I love it when Tietchens does weird rhythmic pop as much as his completely abstract stuff, and some of these rhythmic loops sound like the recent Hematic Sunsets albums he does, sometimes in collaboration with Felix Kubin & Michael Rother; in any case, they are totally thinking as one with this project and I can't wait to hear the studio version

OK am I the only one who keeps reading this poll as Doctor Morbius 1978-2011

Good work, Milt! Hope people vote!

thanking you mr parker, gonna use this as a listening guide

\(^o^)/ now do the roedelius discog

I simply don't own all of the Roedelius albums

The tone of these reviews is probably a little presumptuous and annoying for ILM but there isn't another website in the world that would publish this

In honor of Milton's reviews, here's a Spotify playlist featuring everything it has on this list. I was almost inclined to keep off all the post-1983 stuff just bc I'd rather listen to the earlier material. But hey, voting is still open.

Incredible. Thanks to Milton and NTI in excelsis.

Thank you for those reviews!

no more than the reviews in this thread: s/d popol vuh and thats one of the best threads on ilm. way more into reading someone's reviews of an artist's discog than "rolling garbage 2kfart"

p.s. this entry looks pretty empty - http://allmusic.com/artist/dieter-moebius-p19379/discography ... maybe ned can get your foot in the door there ; )

also got around to reading that interview, nice one geeta

I almost mentioned that Cubic Yellow album, except it's actually by two other people and moebius is only on two tracks? Allmusic should certainly not be listing that as a solo moebius album.

Amazon has the mp3s for sale, I checked out the samples, my completism only goes so far

haha, yeah those reviews are quite tame and tempered compared to my purple prose fanboy monstrosities in the Circle thread! <3

Yeah, by that reckoning "Highdelberg" and "Mani und Seine Freunde" could be classed as Moebius albums!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

wow

I am very proud of the person who voted for Space Explosion

My husband gave me the Moebius+Tietchens for an anniversary present! <3<3<3

now there's a great husband! this record is almost too much of a dream team match up for me; i'm afraid to listen to it!

I'm listening to it now at work! It's great!
AT is one of the reasons we got together ;)

and what Milton said above about hard to tell who is doing what.

find it pretty weird to "poll" one of ILX's active members, especially on ILM

?

Love the new Moebius/Tietchens cd, it stays pretty laid back & sparse for the first 15-20 minutes but from track 4 on, crazy. It's not melodic like 'tonspuren' or the first four Tietchens lps on Sky but the sense of rhythm is stranger and more powerful than ever

"Very sad news today for all friends of Dieter Moebius and his unique music. Our friend, neighbour and collaborator passed away this morning, July 20th 2015. He will be missed dearly by all of us. Our thoughts go out to his wife, Irene. RIP, Dieter (Möbi)

god, I always get nervous when threads like this get bumped

Oh no!!! RIP Möbi. Damn. "Tonspuren", where are you?

It's my fault, you guys. I was playing some of his stuff on Spotify just last night after not listening to it for MANY YEARS. Maybe it's not my fault, but it feels like it is.

What that guy didn't know about funny noises wasn't worth knowing.

:(

>even if presaged by later Can and Eno & Byrne in places.

Czukay was working on early mixes for 'Movies' at Conny's around the same time he played bass on the two Cluster & Eno records, and they all definitely heard each other's works in progress so all of these records are pretty much all in the family

Ummmm, "Zero Set" is from 1983.

Ignore that, misread Sanpaku's post! Soz. Plank played on "Der Osten ist Rot" of course.

New to Spotify, an album from Moebius Story Leidecker called "Familiar". Is this a reissue, or something new pulled from the vaults?

The latter, it seems: New Album from the Moebius Story Leidecker - sessions. October 6th 2017.

More info on the Bureau B website: http://www.bureau-b.com/msl.php

the album he did with Wobbly/Jon Leidecker right before he died is really fucking good, I just listened to it three times in a row

Sure would be cool to know how that record got made ...

finally listening to Zero Set and here are my first two thoughts

1) this is exactly what I was hoping My Life in the Bush of Ghosts was gonna sound like

2) Mouse on Mars may have taken a lot of ideas from this record
