The senseless murder of Wolfgang Riechmann is one of the great tragedies of electronic music. His only album "Wunderbar" (released within weeks of his death, I think) is so staggeringly good you can't help but wonder what he might have achieved if only he'd lived.

The whole album has a very "Berlin School" feel, but Riechmann was from Dusseldorf and had worked previously with members of Kraftwerk and Neu! which just goes to show that such distinctions are largely ad hoc and kind of meaningless.

Nice! Speaking as a long time fan of Yello

Never heard of him. Will stick it on now 👍✨
