Irmin Schmidt - Le Weekend (Official Audio)

Taken from ’Electro Violet’ - OUT NOW - the 12 CD retrospective box set from composer Irmin Schmidt. Order ‘Electro Violet’ (Signed physical copy) below: MuteBank - Physical - Digital - ( U.S physical release January 8th 2016). Irmin Schmidt is a founding member of Can, the German band whose unparalleled genius remains unquestioned, timeless and immeasurably influential. When all Can members decided to part and explore new sounds, Irmin teamed up with Swiss jazz and electronics musician Bruno Spoerri to make his first post-Can album, Toy Planet (1981), which opens the box set. The collection then travels through to his Gormenghast opera, solo albums, collaborations with Kumo (Jono Podmore) and Duncan Fallowell, plus his extensive and award winning film soundtrack works, including the unreleased Film Musik Anthology Vol. 6.
