A short review. In 1969 MYTHOS-mastermind Stephan Kaske founded with two school friends the rock trio MYTHOS in Berlin, which in the beginning is oriented at the so-called Berlin School Bands like Tangerine Dream and Agitation Free. Analog synthesizers combined with flute, drums and guitar was exciting and new at that time - the Krautrock was born, and MYTHOS were among the founders. No wonder that the cult label OHR discovered the band. In 1971, the self-titled debut albumhas been published, followed by the second album "Dreamlab", from 1975. At that time MYTHOS was on the road and played every club from north to south of Germany, nevertheless Stephan Kaske still found time to compose music for numerous movies and television films . Until 1979, he joined his fellow musicians constantly in and out, the band recorded two more albums, then it was over with the band MYTHOS. From 1980 MYTHOS was only Stephan Kaske, only guest musicians found their way into his own Mythos studio.
In this studio "Grand Prix" was recorded in 1981, a completely harmonious blend of groove, analog synthie work and Krautrock. Similar to the former combatants Tangerine Dream or Klaus Schulze, Kaske had found his way. A successful way until today. "Grand Prix" appeared on the Hamburg label Sky Records by Günter Körber, that fits!
On this first release on CD, two bonus tracks are included, that Kaske found in his archive. A listening pleasure!
