Originally released in 1972, this 2016 Made In Germany Music reissue comes in a Digi-Pak with Original Artwork, a 16-Page Booklet and 1 Bonus Track!

In 2016 the Made In Germany label’s run on the Klaus Schulze re-issue campaign is seriously underway with this and a sizable list of other classics (listed below), all available again as MIG pressings in smart Digi-Paks and most with a range of Bonus Tracks. There are more planned reissues to come between 2016 & 2017 AND some new titles are scheduled too!

Klaus Schulze about ‘Irrlicht’ …
‘Irrlicht’ still has more connections to Musique Concrete than with today's electronics. I still never owned a synthesizer at the time. I had a damaged amplifier, which I had hotwired and which only survived for this album, after ‘Irrlicht’, it completely broke! When you turned up the volume control it caused internal feedback, a sine, and with the help of the tremolo I let it chirp. It got broken because of the feedback.
I also modified the organ so that it wouldn't sound like a normal organ. I also had a cassette recorder with a cheap microphone. With this device I went to the FU (the renowned 'Freie Universität Berlin') to record the orchestra there. I then used a few filters to alienate these recordings in order to make them sound strange.
The COLLOQUIUM MUSICA ORCHESTRA was a real classical orchestra. I just went to one of their rehearsals and said: “I like what you're doing here but could you play something completely different for me for half an hour? I'm just making a record”. And the conductor asked me: “what would you like to have?” “Well”, I said, “I don't care, just play anything! I just want to have the sound. I'm going to play the tape backwards anyway”. He said: “Then come to a rehearsal and record that!” So I got an orchestra and didn't even have to pay for it.
