	Matt Howarth's Sonic Space - The Lunar Melodies of Holger Czukay
		Holger Czukay was once the bassist with the legendary experimental rock band Can.
		The main difference is an refinement of his ability to manipulate the borrowed snippets, enabling Czukay to fuse the samples into seamless sonic currents, where previously the flow had been more erratic, subject to jarring cuts.
		It is Czukay's style to fuse these overlapping textures into wholly new sounds and rhythms, achieving quite an industrial edge with his ambience.

		If this was Holger's only achievement, he would be a legend but luckily he has persevered after the break up of Can in the late '70's.

		Holger Czukay is not only hipper than any 62 year old you know, he's probably hipper (and younger at heart) than you.
		Czukay was born in 1938 in Danzig, a city that has been claimed by both Germany and Poland.
		Czukay has spent much of this decade working on still unreleased material for his wife U-She; his website, which is a source of music, contact, and entertainment; and Gvoon Magazine, a sort of hypertext stage show.

	Holger Czukay: Good Morning Story
		From today's perspective, however, you could argue that the Can years were a hiatus in Czukay's career, disrupting the continuity from Canaxis's experimental montages of Western and non-European sound sources, to the cinematic cut-ups and splicing of later solo works like 1979's Movies and the hard disk constructions of his latest album, Good Morning Story.
		Shunning samplers and sequencers, Czukay cut and pasted his sound materials direct to hard disk and the result is a kind of seamless digital sculpture.
		Well, Czukay's distinctively Germanic sense of fun can appear laboured at times, but his deceptively rich and fluid music is certainly worth the effort of listening through his jokes, even if you have to grit your teeth.

	Holger reviews page 2
		Holger's using his years of experience with sound is not abrasive or so weird as to complicate one's look inside, but rather like a great canvas to see oneself set against.
		Holger Czukay, one of the prominent spirits from the ashes of kraut-rock gods Can, has evolved into one of those gentle gnome-like musical creatures that understands the avant garde ethos and embraces it with all his might.
		Czukay drops a chilly drone which is as frosty as a lunar stroll minus a spacesuit whilst a poem/incantation is cooed by Nicoesque U-She.

		Holger Czukay is a founding member of the legendary 'krautrock' band Can.
		Czukay uses his extensive cut-up skills to lay down a murky, Ovel-esque loop foundation to which he adds a metronome like beat and sporadic fills, sonic textures, voices and the like.
		The 38th to 42nd minutes are the most active with percussion and noise stuff and the final few minutes bring it all to a close with a beat absent cloud.

	Amazon.ca: Canaxis: Music: Holger Czukay,Rolf Dammers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		This is basically a solo work by Czukay, with valuable assistance from Dammers - and the results are stunning in their beauty, innovation and spirit.
		With the women's voices as the focus, Czukay allows the rhythm of their song to carry the rest of the piece - everything else falls into place around and behind the singing.
		Holger Czukay, at the time this record was done with Rolf Dammers, was just getting going in this weird band called Inner Space...but which would soon change its name to Can and become one of the more influential bands to come out of Germany.

	Holger Czukay
		As a founding member of the legendary German avant-garde ensemble Can, Holger Czukay is widely recognized as a founding father of experimental rock’n’roll.
		Czukay makes great use of a radio receiver on "Twilight," from the duo’s performance at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, while "Backup Dream" is funkier but also more sinister.
		Taking a cue from Sacrilege, an album that remixes from seminal innovators Can (of whom Czukay was a part), he uses rhythm samples from vintage Can on three tracks over which he adds voices and other insturments.

		Holger Czukay -guitar, bass, vocals, forged ethno samples, short waves, trumpet mouthpiece, VS 60 synthesizer
		When Holger Czukay was a small boy growing up in Germany during and after World War II he dreamed of becoming a symphony conductor or a church organist; as an adult he has learned how to make music out of radio broadcasts and skillfully edited snippets of tape.
		Czukay delights in adorning his creations with vivid details that only become apparent after multiple listens; at first the instrumental "Atlantis" sounds like endless repetitions of a single deconstructed funk riff, but on closer examination it teams with sputtering rhythmic sidelines and momentarily glimpsed windows into unattainable sound worlds.

		The myriad elements of Czukay's style--his roots in abstract composition, his interest in world music and his use of electronic loops--are most explicit in the amorphous "Mirage," which takes up the whole second half of the album.
		Czukay, though, pushes the line where music turns into random noise as far as it can go without ever tripping over it.

		Yep, this gent may live and work under the name of Holger Czukay but his features are a ringer for that pioneering time lord William Hartnell, the first Dr Who.
		Johnny Lydon was noted as holding the teutonic quartet in high regard although Holger suspects the one time terror of Finsbury Park only became aware of their activities when he stumbled into like minded musical thinking with PIL.
		By virtue of being born in 1938 and not becoming a 'rock musician' until the comparatively decrepit age of thirty, Holger Czukay avoided the sometimes zombie-fying processes of a rock-filled adolescence and all the hard-to-avoid constrictions such a lifestyle generally entails.

		During this period Holger Czukay was pushed to the fringes of the group's activity; in fact he just made sounds using shortwave radios, morse code keys, tape recorders and other sundry objects.
		Holger Czukay and Irmin Schmidt were both pupils of Karlheinz Stockhausen.
		Michael Karoli, in turn, was a pupil of Holger Czukay, and brought the influence of gypsy music through his esoteric studies.

	Holger Czukay
		Most of the music on Czukay’s entry into the digital medium is sampled and digitally processed.
		Czukay does stay true to his original vibe with organic-sounding drums, rich guitar sounds that play jazzy melodies and bizarre riffs and tinty bass lines reminiscent of Can’s early days.
		The last of the six tracks, "Mirage," is a beatless dreamscape that could be the soundtrack to a peyote trip somewhere in the middle of India.

		Though Can bassist and cofounder Holger Czukay held up the low-end in the group's unsurpassable rhythm section, he was also the architect of Can's seminal sound in more subtle ways.
		Czukay abandoned the group after 1979's CAN and has been extremely active since, working with a multigenerational cross-section of musical movers and shakers.
		Czukay may have agonized over MOVIES for years, but the result is a timeless statement.

	Interview with Holger Czukay
		Holger Czukay was a key figure in the seminal German band Can.
		Holger's role in the group was as bass player (which he dropped in 1976 in favour of short wave radio, telephone, tape recorders, etc) but also, crucially, as engineer and editor, spending hours turning the group's extended improvisations into finished songs.
		Holger's solo work has been just as interesting, (a couple of questionable ambient albums with David Sylvian apart), developing the idea of painting with sound through editing and pursuing a music which has a visual character.

	The Ten Thousand Things
		This captivating track from Holger Czukay’s 1979 record Movies pre-dates My Life In The Bush of Ghosts by a year or two and employs some of the same techniques, appropriating Persian vocals snagged from shortwave broadcasts and combining them with Czukay’s own brand of hi-life, featuring guitar work reminiscent of another tech monster, Mr.
		Czukay studied under Stockhausen in the 1960s and was a member of the German braniac band Can, and was certainly a pioneer in the mixing of “world” music sources with Western style Pop and Art Rock.
		Czukay went on to work as a bassist, composer, and producer with The Eurythmics, Eno, Phew, David Sylvian and Jah Wobble, among many others.

	REVIEW: Holger Czukay - "La Luna"
		Holger Czukay is one of the few that can legitimately claim to be one of the founding fathers of electronic music.
		Trained in music by composer Karl Stockhausen and technically brilliant, Czukay's taken his music in some odd directions before, and this disc is no exception.
		Later in the track, Holger's collaborator U-She adds some vocals to this purported ritual, supposedly prayers to the moon (liner notes provided).

	Mixmaster Morris \| Music I Like \| Krautrock \| Holger Czukay
		Holger Czukay is a godfather of the cultural expropriation that is common-place in modern music.
		At their live gigs (which would last up to six hours) he would twiddle radios and scratch with dictaphones and generally fuck with sounds - not unlike a DJ, albeit a very eccentric one.
		Recently I met Holger in Barcelona at the Sonar convention, where he gave a showing of his 'home movies' to accompany a selection of his music.

	Ink 19 :: Holger Czukay
		I find it interesting that, with Czukay being at an age where his contemporaries are living out fading glories and have a death-grip on the nostalgia-tour-circuit, Czukay and the rest of Can are doing the contrary opposite.
		In the liner notes, Czukay gleefully points out that most of this album was conceived through spontaneous experimentation with samples.
		The album feels like a great big sonic blanket that slowly envelops you, especially with the track "Mirage." Opening track "Invisible Man" is a piece of mid-paced funk/dub that threatens to become quite annoying in the vocal department until U-She saves the whole affair with her ghost-in-the-machine act.

	THE BROOKLYN RAIL - MUSIC
		As the group evolved, Czukay relinquished his bass guitar and acted as a sound engineer, incorporating tape loops, short-wave radio, and ambient noise into Can’s complex sound.
		Czukay’s embrace of electronic dance music in the late nineties has resulted in a fruitful trans-generational dialogue in his work, as he discovered much younger musicians sharing his love for rhythmic noise and the misuse of electronic instruments.
		When we had finished Canaxis [Czukay’s first record, made with Rölf Dammers] and Monster Movie [Can’s first LP], it happened that we were invited in 1969 by the State Theater in Zurich, Switzerland, to make a kind of theater show, as you call it, theater music, for three months.
