Cinema
Isolation
CINEMA is the solo project of former TIBET guitarist Jn "Pongse" Krutzsch. TIBET was one of those Krautrock groups who were traveling in the 70s with groups like ELOY, FRANZ K, GROBSCHNITT or EPITAPH. Her achievements and the group celebrated the mid to late 70's on some big festivals in England with GINGER BAKER, TRAFFIC, HAWKWIND u.v.a. So the band enjoys great popularity even today on the island. The only eponymous album of TIBET was re-released by Sireena Records on Vinyl. After TIBET had dissolved in 1980, Pongse of electronic music in the style of Tangerine Dream or ALAN PARSONS began to turn. With fellow musicians (among others PEE WEE BLUE GANG singer Richard hail) and also some studio musicians he took 1985 Single and LP ISOLATION under the name CINEMA. These first two pictures then appeared yet on their own label. The LP is now out and is traded only to lovers deals at record fairs. This is also one of the reasons why Sireena Records has decided to leave remaster 2016 album and to bring in a limited edition on 180 gram vinyl back on the market. The unfavorable conditions at the beginning of the recording sessions is probably due to the amateurish charm of this production. Pongse began namely first in a closet with various equipment to experiment and went only to complete in a relatively late stage in the studio to record with various musicians. Cute anecdote: Only when the LP was finished manufactures, realized Pongse that not a single guitar sound was heard on the entire production. It was well with him so much, to let off steam on various synthesizers that he had the guitar simply forgotten. Has at ELP indeed works!
