What prompted that – was it a change of recording-equipment?
HC: “Well, we moved from a castle, where we had a room – a studio to record in – into an old cinema. And I’m speaking from there now, out of Can’s old studio – Inner Space – which was turned into a museum. The rooms were completely naked – there was nothing here any more. And then my partner Ursa Major said, ‘now you must get that studio back.’ And she built it up into a fantastic new studio here. Now I don’t ever want to go home. I just want to stay here.

HC: “I did a new remix of it. I took all the old material and made a special version of it – only for London. And I’ve done the same with some unheard Can material. Can material from about ’68. All previously unreleased.” The Canaxis sessions – am I right in saying they were recorded in Cologne at the WDR [Westdeutscher Rundfunk – “West German Broadcasting”]
