The Dark Side Of The Moog - The Dark Side Of The Moog IX

Review by Jim Howe

The Dark Side Of The Moog IX is a mesmerizing album that showcases the collaborative efforts of two electronic music legends, Klaus Schulze and Pete Namlook, under the moniker Dark Side Of The Moog. The album is a continuation of their long-running series of albums that explore the depths of ambient, experimental and psychedelic music.

The album opens with "Obscured by Klaus", a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its haunting synth melodies and hypnotic rhythms. The second track, "Obscured by Pete", is a more subdued affair, with sparse percussion and ethereal textures that create a dreamlike atmosphere.

As the album progresses, the duo delves deeper into the realms of electronic music, with tracks like "Obscured by Matter", which features pulsating beats and intricate synth patterns, and "Obscured by Time", which is a more introspective track with a melancholic vibe.

Summary by Jim Howe

The Dark Side Of The Moog IX is a stunning album that showcases the immense talent of Schulze and Namlook. The album is a must-listen for fans of electronic music, and it is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who gives it a spin.
