Floating Music 2023
The brand new Album
comes in January 2023
Floating Music EDITION 2023
The second album from 1980 ...
now remastered & rereleased + 23 min new bonus track
After his successful debut album Harmonic Ascendant from 1979, Robert's second album Floating Music was released in 1980 on Klaus Schulze's IC label.
The music got a unique and typical sound character by using Robert`s selfmade synthesizers in the mixture with Polymoog, CS-80 and PPG-Modular.
Robert has now remastered Floating Music and will rerelease it as EDITION 2023 on Spheric Music in January 2023. However, in this EDITION 2023 version a fat bonus track Floating In Slow Motion with 23 minutes has been added, which upgrades the original vinyl length of 36 min to now 59 min to a well-filled CD length. Have much pleasure.
The daily release of masses of new music has extremely accelerated the listening pleasure. Music has become short-lived, which I as an artist regret very much.
Why always strive for new music, when there is so much good music that quickly falls into oblivion - precisely because we are always striving for something new every day.
With a new animation film I would like to remind you of my excellent album "CREAM" from 2010, which I appreciate very much and listen to often. The track "Simply Cream" is representative for the whole album in its music style and atmosphere. Have much fun and enjoy the clip. more information and shop orders here

VERY SAD NEWS
R.I.P. Klaus Schulze
26th of April 2022
26th of April.2022, R.I.P. Klaus Schulze
I am sad - absolutely sad
26th of April.2022, R.I.P. Klaus Schulze
... sadness - absolutely deep sadness.
Today's news about the death of our electronic pioneer and guru Klaus Schulze has certainly hit us all in the head - one can't understand it yet. An incredibly great loss means the passing of Klaus for the music world, but also for me personally. As many know, I was very close to Klaus in a special relationship - he positively influenced my life and launched me as a musician.
Klaus Schulze was a genius on the synthesizer, he created worlds of sound like no one else. Many musicians were gladly inspired by Klaus, his sound worlds were our norm. At the time, Klaus was one of the very first to use synthesizers to open new doors in art and listening pleasure, practically creating and establishing a new genre of music. We all know how valuable Klaus was to the music world and to us.
Klaus Schulze leaves behind not only an enormous repertoire of brilliant music, but also a wife (Elfi) as well as two sons (Richard and Maximilian) and four grandchildren - again, I express my deepest condolences also for them.
Klaus - you will live on in your music and in our hearts.
Thank you very much for everything.

Spaces Of A Dream
The brand new Album
comes in March 2022
SPACES OF A DREAM
only your imagination limits the space ...
The new album "Spaces Of A Dream" kicks off the new year 2022 and Lambert Ringlage from Spheric Music is impressed. Reason enough to describe the new work in his own words:
"Wonderful dream landscapes with wide choirs meet us on Robert's new album.
Because the pieces flow smoothly into each other, Spaces Of A Dream offers a wonderful deep positive atmosphere to drift away spacy. Rhythmic percussive elements bring energy into the dream journey. Hypnotic sequences give the space feeling a certain drive and you recognize the "old" Robert Schroeder again.
On the new album, Robert succeeds in bringing outflowing and condensing atmospheres into harmony with dreamy sequences. A fantastic album."
In memory of the wonderful Sylvia Sommerfeld + I wish you all a healthy and happy 2022. May your dreams come true and a lot of good music enrich your lives.
kind regards ... Robert
additional information to Sylvia Sommerfeld (+Dec.29.2021):
There are people whose loss is very profound and upsetting. Sylvia was a truly fine person who was a very important stone in our small community. Her illness had been known for some time, but one would never have expected such a sudden end.
I am also very sad about the news. I thank Sylvia for her commitment - she will leave a big gap. My condolences also for Klaus Sommerfeld ... I wish him much strength to cope with this loss. Sylvia - you remain in our hearts ... R.I.P.

Dear friends of Electronic Music,
Two years of Corona siege certainly have the effect that we can no longer hear this subject. All the more relaxation we should devote to the upcoming Christmas season and enjoy the end of the year. For the New Year we wish ourselves liberation from the pandemic, back to the old carefree life.
For this my new album "Spaces Of A Dream" could help you, which has just been finished and will be released on March.03.2022. "Spaces Of A Dream" gives you space to dream - only your imagination limits the space.
Until then I wish you all a relaxed end of the year, good luck and health for the new year and exciting patience until the release of "Spaces Of A Dream". Let your dreams flow.
kind regards ... Robert

TOP-11 recommendations by the artist
42 - the answer to everything ...
I once delighted myself by listening to my entire published repertoire in a relaxed and attentive manner through headphones.
Among my 42 solo albums there are a number of absolutely recommendable products and even 11 absolute top recommendations, which are particularly outstanding in terms of their composition and sound. My recommendations relate to typical Electronic Music for taking off and relaxing. So if you want to “hitchhike through the galaxy” of electronic sounds, have a look to my recommended albums, if you are searching for an absolutely special sound adventure. Have much fun. more information here

Pyroclast is music as hot as Plasma, musical outbursts like the climax of an Eruption, sequences and rhythms generate Exothermic Energy in you, which pours in Pyroclastic Flows. As usual, the album consists of a healthy mix between atmospheric relaxing tracks and rhythmically catchy tunes.
Exothermic Energy (track-7) in particular has a downright euphoric effect. There is also a 3D animation trailer for this track, which you can see here left and on YouTube.

Hot flairs and cool sounds
Dear friends of good Electronic Music,
I spent my Corona imprisonment in the recording studio and so was able to produce a new album.
Pyroclast is the name of the forthcoming album and will be released on Spheric Music in early April. The album title is representative of the musical content of the new work: Pyroclast is music as hot as Plasma, musical outbursts like the climax of an Eruption, sequences and rhythms generate Exothermic Energy in you, which pours in Pyroclastic Flows. As usual, the album consists of a healthy mix between atmospheric relaxing tracks and rhythmically catchy tunes.
Exothermic Energy (track-7) in particular has a downright euphoric effect. There is also a 3D animation trailer for this track, which will be available on YouTube and my website soon.
I wish you all the best of health, a lot of strength and ideas to continue to survive this difficult time.

Magical Sounds and atmospheres
With CORONA, the COVID-19 pandemic, we all have a very difficult path to take this year. The worst is being infected and for those, who have already died and their relatives, it is pure madness. The many doctors, nurses and helpers of all kinds are currently giving everything but really everything to win the fight. But even those who have to stay at home face many - loss of earnings, loss of job, fear of existence and restrictions. It's damn hard - but folks, we have to go through that.
Maybe my new CD album C’est Magique is just the right thing to get through this time with a little entertainment, distraction and relaxation. C’est Magique is something special for ears and brain, magical sounds and atmospheres with challenging sound excursions through the deep spheres of the magical world of synthesizers. A 3D-animated film was produced for the track Glowing Energy, which can be seen on YouTube. The eight tracks with a total time of 60 minutes merge seamlessly.
The official release is on May 1st, 2020 on Spheric Music (SMCD-2041). If you order now, you can insert the album into your player 14 days earlier.
I wish you all the best for health, lots of strength and ideas to get well through this difficult time. more information here

C'EST MAGIQUE
Result of
Schallwelle Award 2019
and announcement
NEW ALBUM
for
May 2020
FATA MORGANA place-2 best album 2019
C'EST MAGIQUE new album for May 2020
Dear friends of good Electronic Music,
the album FATA MORGANA has been nominated for the Schallwelle Award 2019. But unfortunately it has reached only the 2nd place on February 29th, 2020 in Schwerte.
Not the best rating, but one can still be satisfied with it. Many thanks to the voters and the jury of the Schallwende organization.
But as already announced on Facebook, I will improve and will immediately present a new album this year. C’est Magique will be called the new recording and is scheduled for release in early May. more information here Visit the website of Schallwelle Award here.
For my 40th anniversary this year, the release of my 40th solo album FATA MORGANA is due. This I would like to announce and describe it once with the appropriate words of Lambert Ringlage (Spheric Music):
“Robert Schroeder has always great sounds. Each of his last releases has an extraordinary space sound. As well this time this sound is combined with unusual impressive timbres. On Fata Morgana Robert takes us on a cosmic journey in the regions of illusions. We hear dreamy and supernormal sounds: sometimes chirping, sometimes imploding, sometimes bizarre, sometimes sensitive, sometimes sweeping. Choirs, percussive cymbals and toms, vocal effects, an electric guitar and pearling sequences are embedded in this wonderful dream cosmos.
And Robert takes his time to let these sounds develop and breathe. At least for the duration of this album your Fata Morgana is put into your music room. A grandiose work to dream and be filled with wonder!”
The release of my new album will be on the 1st of June 2019 on Spheric Music (SMCD-2040 / 7 Tracks / 65 Min)
This year it is exactly 40 years ago when the IC label was founded by Klaus Schulze.
In 1979 the IC label has started publishing the first albums, for example: Baffo Banfi, Din-A-Testbild, Wolfgang Bock, Arthur Brown/Vincent Crane, Richard Wahnfried, Mickey D’s Unicorn and P’Cock (with Thommy Betzler).
One of the first releases on Klaus Schulze's IC label was also my debut album Harmonic Ascendant.
Since then 40 years have passed ... and in early June of this year my 40th solo album will be released, of course on Spheric Music.
Having been discovered as an electronic "shooting star" in 1978 was not an illusion as you can hear my continued creativity on my new release which is my 40th album - just named FATA MORGANA.
Let us be curious.

Spaceland
release: November 2018
S P A C E L A N D . . .
in search of distant galaxies
...
In looking for new living space in distant galaxies, SPACELAND can help sweeten the time with pleasant spacy Electronics Music.
SPACELAND is very spherical synthesizer music, with fantastic sound impressions, extended and highly relaxing excursions into the depths of electronic music.
Elements of the typical Berlin School merge with soulful synthi melodies and modern sounds.
The album title Spaceland is the program: 70 minutes non stop spheresounds take you into unknown worlds..
On May, 20, 2018 my new CD album nEW fREQUENCIES Vol.3 will be released on NEWS-music. An electronic upbeat work with slightly higher bpm values, very varied, ingenious synth- and sequencer arrangements and an overall exceptional product in composition and production quality. Something Schroeder-atypical, although unmistakably Schroeder, however, so therefore published in nEW fREQUENCIES as separate series. You may be surprised.
For the upcoming New Year I wish you all
good luck, good health and a lot of good music.
And to greet the beginning of the year with a new work from me,
In January 2018 my 1981 work Mosaique will finally be released on CD-R.
Unfortunately, the da-music (rights owner) could not decide to release a CD until today. Now at least the right to sell the CD-R could be achieved.
Many thanks to the da-music.
Many have long been waiting for Mosaique as a CD release.
The Mosaique CD-R also includes a bonus track over 9 minutes long.
So, collectors and lovers, order the same in our shop.
Believed to be lost - a historical discovery
... a small sensation ... ...
The new CD release in September 2017
The world of the EM community speaks about it since the release of Harmonic Ascendant, my successful debut album from 1979. Prior to this first vinyl LP release (IC / WEA), I was already in 1978 in the studio for a first start of the production. Harmonic Decadence should be the original title of this recording.
This never released first recording was missed for a long time ... and was now found again and will be released shortly as CD under the title D.MO Vol.4 / Harmonic Decadence.

Info-Trailer VELOCITY
Welcome to my brand-new homepage
Finally, the new website is ready. The amount of data was clearly thinned, better organized and packaged in an attractive manner.
The new website is now also "responsive", so it adapts automatically to all sizes (mobile phone, tablet etc.).
Particularly convenient is now the arrangement of all information, since these are now central in the "Shop" . If you are looking for product info, music demos, posters, photos, videos, interviews or anything else, you can find them in the shop as a link (right column) in the respective product block. Wide distances in the paths of confusing and rubrics are no longer necessary.
Nevertheless you can also find photos and videos in the separate area under "Fotos". This area is not yet finished completely.
The press can use the download-page to download product information and free-of-charge publication photos.
To the release of my new CD VELOCITY in February 2017, a short video trailer was created (click on the photo left). The impressive 3D animation presents the title of the CD and certainly does not represent the rest of the music on the CD.
VELOCITY is rich in variety, very spherical tracks, very experimental and above all exciting and relaxing, the 7 tracks of the 64 minutes long disc present themselves.
Further information will follow ...

New Album - new Website - new Interview
I am currently working hard on my new album, which will be released at the beginning of 2017 under the promising title VELOCITY on Spheric Music.
At the same time, however, a complete rework of this website is also being worked out, designed and programmed. Probably from January, this homepage will be there in new shine and in modern design for you there.
In the meantime you can already read here my current interview on AMAZONA.de (German language). A comprehensive interview about old times, how everything began, how it evolved and how it is today. Interesting information and photos on 32 pages. Have much fun.
German EM artist Robert Schroeder has finished his new CD-album Ambient Occlusion after three month of production. The 69 minutes lasting work provides very experimental and "electronic" Music.
For Robert this is one further milestone on his way back to the roots of EM.
Surprising effects, sharp contrasts, spherical excursions, extraordinary sequencer arrangements, new sound effects, dreamy, playful, exciting and very varying ... these are the ingredients of the new CD Ambient Occlusion, which apparently of course show Robert's facilities and sometimes you will be captured by the atmospheres of the early 80s.
Schroeder's music is incomparable and unique. It combines very spherical and surrealistic elements with beautiful concrete catchy melodies.

DREAM ACCESS – the NEW CD by Robert
This year EM artist Robert Schroeder looks back on a 10-year collaboration with the German electronic label Spheric Music (Lambert Ringlage).
Here are Lamberts personal impressions to Roberts new album:
"A true bath in sound and music, beautiful melodies, wonderful moods, partly experimental, from which melody and sequences emerge again, beautiful tom fills, many atmospheres and much reverb. Robert has added some extraordinary sounds and exciting elements into his work, which let the beautiful long dream phases come into play wonderfully. A varying and well done album."
