ZeitMaster has been a source of Progressive Rock and Berlin School Electronic Music for the past decade. With the decline of CD sales (especially unknown obscurities) I am moving the business toward a fan based thing. I will still be selling some stuff but not the extensive line that I use to have. Also, I will be starting an internet radio station thins coming year so be looking for that. Feel fr
ee to discuss music, give reviews of stuff you bought from me or give recomendation, add concert dates, event dates, and band/song recommendations. Most events I post will be Chicago events since I live near Chicago but any event is welcome provided it is music related. Progressive rock - (often shortened to prog or prog rock) is a form of rock music that evolved in the late 1960s and early 1970s as part of a "mostly British attempt to elevate rock music to new levels of artistic credibility. The term was applied to the music of bands such as King Crimson, Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Soft Machine and Emerson, Lake and Palmer. Berlin School - of electronic music, or just Berlin School, was a development of electronic music in the 1970s, shaped by Berlin-based artists like Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream and Ashra. Vintage Berlin School tracks typically ran about twenty or thirty minutes, filling one side of a vinyl LP. The genre was so thoroughly identified with the long form that a general shift to shorter pieces in the 1980s seemed to herald the death of the movement. After the coming of the compact disc "retro" artists were no longer limited by the need to flip over a vinyl record. Some newer works run continuously as a single track for almost 80 minutes. Space rock - is a sub-genre of rock music; the term originally referred to a group of early, mostly British, 1970s progressive and psychedelic rock bands such as Hawkwind and Pink Floyd, characterized by slow, lengthy instrumental passages dominated by electric organs, synthesizers, experimental guitar work and science fiction or astronomical lyrical themes.
