Cyborg is the second album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1973, and in 2006 was the nineteenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records.
All CD issues of this album prior to the 2006 reissue had the tracks "Synphära" and "Chromengel" incorrectly transposed (though the packaging was always printed correctly). "But Beautiful", the bonus track on the reissue is the first part of the concert which took place in Brussels at the Cathédrale St-Michel on 17 October 1977.
All tracks composed by Klaus Schulze.

Klaus Schulze was a German electronic music pioneer, composer and musician. He also used the alias Richard Wahnfried and was a member of the Krautrock bands Tangerine Dream, Ash Ra Tempel, and the Cosmic Jokers before launching a solo career consisting of more than 60 albums released across six decades.
X is the tenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1978, and in 2005 was the fifth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records.
Timewind is the fifth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1975, and in 2006 was the twenty-second Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. It is Schulze's first solo album to use a sequencer.
Moondawn is the sixth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1976, and in 2005 was the thirteenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. Moondawn is Schulze's first album that was performed in a full Berlin School style, as well as his first to feature contributions from drummer Harald Grosskopf.
Trancefer is the fourteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1981, and in 2006 was the twenty-third Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. With the original total running time of 37 minutes and 23 seconds, it was the shortest album in Schulze's canon until the 2006 reissue doubled its running time by including alternate versions of the main tracks.
Irrlicht is the first album by Klaus Schulze. Originally released in 1972, in 2006 it was the sixteenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records as part of a series of Schulze album reissues. Recorded without synthesizers, Irrlicht's set of "early organ drone experiments" is "not exactly the music for which KS got famous".
Blackdance is the third album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1974, and in 2007 was the twenty-fifth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. For the first time Schulze uses "real" synthesizers and a singer. "Voices of Syn" features Ernst Walter Siemon on vocals. Due to packaging and print errors on later releases, Blackdance was considered Schulze's fourth album for decades, until Klaus D. Müller, Schulze's biographer and publicity manager, discovered from searching through his personal diaries that Picture Music, thought to be the third album, was recorded after Blackdance. Despite this, the reissue labels Blackdance as Schulze's fourth album.
Picture Music is the fourth album of electronic music by German musician Klaus Schulze. It was recorded in late 1974 and released in January 1975 on Brain Records. In 2005 this was the second Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. This is the only Klaus Schulze solo album in which he can be heard playing a drum kit. Prior to his solo career, he was the drummer for Ash Ra Tempel; on his later albums, drummer Harald Großkopf of Wallenstein frequently contributed. Like many of his albums, this one has one long track on each side.
Audentity is the fifteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1983, and in 2005 was the eleventh Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The reissue of Audentity is one of two instances of a Klaus Schulze reissue featuring a track order changed from that of the original release.
Mirage is the eighth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1977, and in 2005, was the first Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. Mirage is subtitled "Eine elektronische Winterlandschaft" and is dedicated to Hans Dieter Schulze.
Dig It is the thirteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1980, and in 2005 was the sixth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. It is Schulze's first fully digital recording. The 2005 reissue includes a bonus DVD with the video recording of the 1980 performance at Ars Electronica, which was previously released as audio on The Ultimate Edition (2000).
Dziękuję Poland Live '83 is the sixteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1983, and in 2006 was the seventeenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. "Katowice" is essentially a live version of "Spielglocken" from Audentity. "Lodz" is essentially a live version of "Ludwig II von Bayern" from X. "Dzien dobry!" is an alternate take of "Katowice"/"Spielglocken".
Inter*Face is the eighteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1985, and in 2006 was the twentieth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The two bonus tracks on the reissue were both previously released on Schulze's 25-disc CD box set Jubilee Edition (1997), which was later included on the 50-disc CD box set The Ultimate Edition (2000). However, a shorter version of "Nichtarische Arie" was included.
Dreams is the nineteenth album by Klaus Schulze. It was released in 1986, and in 2005 was the third Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The reissue bonus track was released early 2004 in Hambühren as a limited promo CD Ion.
Miditerranean Pads is the twenty-first album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1990, and in 2005 was the twelfth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. This is the first of two reissues not to feature a bonus track, though the first track is extended by two minutes.
Le Moulin de Daudet is the twenty-seventh album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1994, and in 2005 was the fourth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. Le Moulin de Daudet was released after Schulze's Silver Edition 10-disc CD box set, technically making this album his thirty-seventh. It is the soundtrack to the film of the same name. The reissue bonus track is an excerpt from the previously released limited promo CD Ion (2004).
Das Wagner Desaster Live is the thirtieth album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1994, and in 2005 was the fifteenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. The reissue of Das Wagner Desaster Live is one of two examples of a Klaus Schulze reissue that changes the original order of the tracks. Das Wagner Desaster Live was released after Schulze's Silver Edition 10-disc CD box set, technically making this album his fortieth.
Are You Sequenced? is the thirty-second album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1996, and in 2006 was the eighteenth Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. Are You Sequenced? was released after Schulze's Silver Edition and Historic Edition 10-disc CD box sets, technically making this album his fifty-second.
Dosburg Online is the thirty-third album by Klaus Schulze. It was originally released in 1997, and in 2006 was the twenty-first Schulze album reissued by Revisited Records. Dosburg Online was released after Schulze's Silver Edition and Historic Edition 10-disc CD box sets, as well as Jubilee Edition 25-disc CD box set, technically making this album his seventy-eighth. This is the second of two reissues not to feature a bonus track.
The Ultimate Edition is a limited edition 50-disc CD box set released by Klaus Schulze in 2000 collecting his previous limited edition multi-disc box sets Silver Edition, Historic Edition, and Jubilee Edition, which contain unreleased archival recordings in addition to new studio material. A further five discs were added for this release. Several discs were altered and restructured from their original versions: discs 7 and 8 were extended by five minutes; discs 11, 13, 14, and 22 were slightly remastered; and discs 41 and 42 were restructured. Two tracks from Jubilee Edition were omitted. The discs are divided into five boxes of ten discs, housed in individual cardboard sleeves. Between 2009 and 2015, tracks from this set were reissued as La Vie Electronique, a series of multi-disc CD sets releasing all the material of The Ultimate Edition in chronological order.
