Talsperre, it means barrier of the valley, is a studio production inspired by Krautmusic heroes like Cluster and Faust, which combines Kunstlied and electronic sounds. Further inspiration came from movie soundtracks like Basil Poledouris' Robocop (1987) but also from american formations like Black Dice and Growing. The project's core is the idea of the ever searching subject wandering through mystical landscapes in the tradition of German Romanticism.
