Lost tapes by Holger Czukay, legendary co-founder of Can, have resurfaced after more than 30 years, revealing a meditative 1997 sound piece originally recorded "for free disposal." Now remastered and reimagined by die ANGEL (Ilpo Väisänen / Dirk Dresselhaus) and Zappi W. Diermaier of Faust, this rediscovered work blends futuristic textures, deep emotion, and abstract groove.

The project originated in the 1990s when Czukay collaborated with techno artists and media pioneers like Arthur Schmidt (Gvoon), exploring cutting-edge digital tools like RealityEngine and body-tracking tech. Inspired by Schmidt’s past in GDR prisons, Czukay created “Gvoon-Brennung 1”—a sonic gift reflecting trauma and transformation. Forgotten for decades, the recording resurfaced when Schmidt built an art installation replicating a Stasi interrogation room.

Mastering engineer Dresselhaus recognized the tape's unique, timeless character—a "bluesy, cybernetic" groove—and carefully balanced historical fidelity with modern production in the updated “Gvoon-Version 1.”

The release pays tribute to Czukay’s innovation and spirit ahead of what would have been his 87th birthday in March 2025, marking a new chapter in the ongoing exploration of his sonic legacy.
