Experience the experimental genius of Can with the 1998 Mute reissue of their sixth studio album, Soon Over Babaluma (1974).
Marking a pivotal transition for the band, this release was the first to feature Irmin Schmidt and Michael Karoli on shared vocal duties following the departure of Damo Suzuki. The album captures Can at a creative crossroads, layering their pioneering krautrock foundation with avant-garde soundscapes, field recordings, and tentative steps toward a more pop-conscious melodic sensibility.
The record is highlighted by the brilliant "Chain Reaction/Quantum Physics" sequence, described by critics as a masterclass in sonic detail and momentum. Elsewhere, the album drifts into the "solemn mechanical tango" of "Come sta, la luna," which masterfully blends 19th-century palm court ambiance with eerie, nocturnal sound effects.
