La Düsseldorf: La Düsseldorf (Coloured Vinyl LP)
Tax included.
La Düsseldorf, the self-titled debut from Klaus Dinger’s visionary project, remains one of the most influential albums of the Krautrock era. Originally released in 1976, the record stands as a bold continuation of Dinger’s work with NEU! and a landmark statement in experimental rock. With relentless motorik beats, hypnotic synthesizers, and ecstatic atmospheres, the album introduced a forward-looking sound that radiated optimism, energy, and the spirit of postwar German modernity.
Key tracks such as “Düsseldorf”, “La Düsseldorf” and “Silver Cloud” capture the vibrant pulse of the band’s home city, pairing rhythmic innovation with melodic clarity in a way that inspired generations of musicians. Brian Eno and David Bowie both hailed La Düsseldorf’s music as a major influence, with Bowie famously calling them “the soundtrack of the 80s”. Their sound bridged the avant-garde and the popular, laying groundwork for punk, electronic, and indie scenes worldwide.
Over the decades, La Düsseldorf has lost none of its vitality. Its driving grooves and inventive arrangements continue to resonate across genres, proving the timelessness of Dinger’s vision. This reissue invites both longtime fans and newcomers to experience one of Krautrock’s essential recordings, a record that captures the restless creativity of its time while still pointing the way forward.
