Not really something the Spirit of Gravity is known for I suppose, but we like the German Rock as much
as the next man. Maybe even more. Anyway, here is a tribute to Can, Neu and the rest from the September
2005 Spirit of Gravity. Steve from Minimal Impact teamed up with Tony from Malevich to perform a Krautrock version of the Minimal
Impact Planets Suite. Steve provides the space noises and guitar, Tony the bass and drum parts, this is the first 6 minutes
of the performance, it carries on building from here.

Review
Shortly after that the curtains open and we see Minimal Impact joined on stage (and bass) by Tony Rimbaud from Malevich. The usual thick soup of rumbling and rambling sonic texture starts up from Minimal Impact. Tony stands and watches. Then at some hidden signal he starts a distorted drum track. Followed shortly after by some distorted bass playing. Motorik! Eventually I realise that we have some sort of Neu!-esque rhythm thing going on, Steve then swings out his guitar and starts to add some shiny Can style rhythm guitar parts over the top. A little while later I realise I've rather embarrassingly started stomping up and down behind the last row of seats wobbling my head around.
Anyway, that's enough of that, a fine choogling set from the lads.
