Music like Shamall

Shamall (Shamal, which loosely translates as "hot desert wind") features music which is a fusion of progressive rock, electronic, rock, pop, and classical. The project was founded by the German musician and producer Norbert Krueler in 1986.

At the beginning of the seventies, Norbert Krueler used simple radio tubes, a microphone and a regular acoustic guitar to create new sound effects. A local concert promoter became aware of the young artist and enabled him to support many acts of popular German Krautrock bands like Grobschnitt, King Pin Meh, Birth Control and Kraan. As music clubs boomed, Norbert swapped the live stage for a DJ stand for financial reasons.

At the end of 1984, Norbert started to make his own music again. He availed himself of the technical progress and added rhythmic experimental music compositions to a laser show for his club audience. These compositions were available only for his club audience and never released to the public.
