Cluster – Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius – occupy a central position in the evolution
of European electronic music, moving from early experimental noise into more open, melodic forms without losing
their exploratory edge. Released in 1976, Sowiesoso finds the duo working with a new sense of clarity and restraint,
shaping gentle, cyclical pieces from a small set of tools and a deliberately reduced studio setup. The music unfolds with
quiet precision, balancing repetition and variation while maintaining an understated rhythmic flow. Marking its 50th
anniversary, the album is reissued as a limited LP edition on 180g vinyl, hand-numbered and restricted to 1000 copies.
A defining work from Cluster’s mid-1970s period, presented in a carefully produced anniversary format.
