Klaus Schønning was born in 1954 in Denmark and started his musical career as a street musician in Copenhagen earning money to record his first album in 1979 called “Lydglimt” (Glimpses of Sound), one of the first albums released with new age music, even before New Age music became an established international genre. To be honest this album doesnt sound "new age" to my ears. This is more like a mixture of space-krautrock and melodic synthesizer music. Almost like a soundtrack to a 70s cult movie! One of my favourite synthesizer albums!
Get it while you can...

I just discovered your excellent blog. While I'm a long-time collector of electronic (mostly Berlin School) and progressive music, I've discovered a few artists here that I was unfamiliar with. Nice stuff!
i especially enjoy Schnitzler, Frohmader and others of that nature. I will look forward to other posts. Thanks for the music.
Thanks for your support. You might want to listen to my own stuff at thaneco.bandcamp.com
Lots of glitches in this copy... hard to enjoy because of wondering when the next glitch will disturb the nice music.
