Robert Schroeder

Robert Schroeder的艺人档案 来自德国的电子音乐家 by Jason Ankeny Electronic composer Robert Schroeder was born in Aachen, Germany on May 20, 1955; after receiving his first guitar at age 13, he began exploring experimental sounds and techniques, eventually giving up playing in 1970 to completely immerse himself in electronics and engineering. After high school Schroeder worked in researching and developing electronic instruments, in his off hours honing his own synthesizer sound; in 1978 he signed to Klaus Schulze's IC label, and a year later released his debut album, Harmonic Ascendant. The aptly titled Floating Music followed in 1980, and with 1981's Mosaique, Schroeder began combining electronics with live instrumentation; the follow-up, Galaxie Cygnus A, was created in conjunction with a multimedia presentation. With 1982's Pegasus released without Schroeder's consent, his next official release was 1983's Paradise; after returning a year later with Computer Voice, in 1985 he issued his soundtrack to the 3D film Brain Voyager. After releasing 1986's Universal Ave. as one half of the duo Double Fantasy with Charly McLion, Schroeder returned to his solo career to issue Timewaves, his most acclaimed effort to date. With 1991's Hamaja, he formed his own label, NEWSmusic; subsequent releases include 1993's Mindwalk and 1994's Everdreams.
