21. Ashra - New Age of Earth (1976)

Guitarist Manuel Gottsching founded Ash Ra Tempel in 1970 with synth pioneer Klaus Schulze and Harmut Enke. Schulze left a year later, but on his own, Gottsching continued plying the spaceways with synthesizers and his signature echoed electric guitar. In 1976, the name shortened to just Ashra, he released New Age of Earth, well in advance of a New Age category existing in record store bins. Tunes such as "Sunrain" are driven by energetic rhythmic sequences, but epic pieces like "Ocean of Tenderness" and "Deep Distance" are slow floats through puffy clouds of electronics.
