Neu!
Neu! 2 LP (white vinyl)

Originally released in 1973 on Brain Records, "NEU! 2" is the second studio album by the visionary West German duo of Klaus Dinger and Michael Rother. This album occupies a legendary and utterly unique place in avant-garde music history. Faced with a depleted recording budget halfway through their studio sessions, the duo pioneered a radical solution: they took their previously recorded single "Neuschnee" / "Super", manipulated the speeds, ran them through tape machines, and created a mesmerizing, frantic proto-remix suite that occupies the entire second side.Engineered by the legendary Conny Plank, the album is a glorious dichotomy. Side A delivers the definitive, driving Motorik beat on tracks like "Für Immer"—a soaring, hypnotic 11-minute masterpiece of propulsive rhythm and shimmering guitar layers. Side B drops listeners into an chaotic wonderland of lo-fi tape manipulation, phasing, and speed variations that directly predicted industrial, punk, and modern electronic remix culture. It is an absolute cornerstone for any serious alternative vinyl collection.
