V2 Schneider

German Minimal / Synth from early 80's NDW Underground V2 Schneider spanned chamber-like synth pieces, proto-techno pulsers and soured synth-pop. Jürgen Schweighart, alias V2 Schneider, released several cassettes from 1980 to 1985 including his official tape releases 'Vol. 1' (1981), 'Blues' (1982), 'Abgrund der Gefühle' (1984), 'Nr.1 in Hong Kong' (1985) and 'After A.I.D.S. Symphony' (1985). Going back to the sound and feeling of early cassette music is for the mature ear challenging and rewarding at the same time. This music just cannot be done anymore in this time and age and for good reasons. The energy of youth and also not having the state of the art studio equipment makes one curious and excited.  Sometimes it is in those limitations that very interesting things are born, despite the factor that a lot of those old songs sound pretty noisy and amateurism.
