Consequenz III

Schnitzler's collaborations with Wolf Sequenza aka Wolfgang Seidel occupy a special place in his vast musical output. They brought him closer to pop music than ever before or since, with the possible exception of “Berlin Express” and “Auf dem schwarzen Kanal”. Following Consequenz  and Con 3, Consequenz III is now the third album to be released from this phase of his work. Peter Baumann (formerly of Tangerine Dream) also played an important role in “Consequenz III”. As so often before, Baumann generously provided Schnitzler and Seidel with studio space at his Paragon Studio. The recordings for this album were the immediate continuation of Con 3. Seidel's additional drums and percussion were still being set up, Schnitzler's Korg MS 10 and the obligatory sequencer were still warm – and another recording session began straight away. There seemed to be enough time to finish an album. Baumann's Paragon Studio was a veritable El Dorado. Although
