The German duo Aloa only made one album in 1982 during the Neue Deutsche Welle movement. The duo, consisting of Al Kanz and Matthias Brendel, both grew up in Kassel, Germany. Though both had different tastes of music, they fused influences and injected them into their own unique blend when they purchased Roland 606 and 808 drum machines plus a Sequential Circuits Prophet 5. After much development and evolution, the Aloa project came to life. The album explores a whole spectrum of textures, moods, and atmospheres. Ranging from dark complex synth-out tracks to diverse instrumentation-laced almost Krautrock motifs, this album is definitely one of a kind. Read more on Last.fm.
