“Bureau B once again dive into the Sky archive, unearthing another overlooked masterpiece long due for rediscovery. Originally released in 1985, Voyage finds Dieter Schütz venturing beyond his Berlin School roots into a realm of lo-fi immediacy and New Age naivety. Every instrument is played by Schütz himself, except for the drums on 'Above,' which are performed with syncopated zeal by Michael Fecker.
While its textured synthscapes and wistful melodies may echo the aesthetics of 2010s Vaporwave, Voyage captured a longing for another world, not through borrowed nostalgia, but through a contemporary vision of escape. Here, Schütz's music is lush yet unpretentious, full of warmth, curiosity, and the gentle imperfections of handmade sound, his combination of organic and synthetic instruments marrying to summon faraway landscapes -- Amazonian forests, sunlit coasts, and cosmic night skies.”
"His debut album TransVision had found a home on the pioneering Innovative Communication label, paving the way for a series of solo works on Sky Records. The title track, 'Voyage,' perfectly encapsulates the album's essence, its drum-box bossa rhythm supporting warm, rhythmic synths and a wistful melody that balances the thrill of adventure with the quiet ache of homesickness?. Even decades later, Voyage still resonates as a unique sonic expedition, both deeply personal yet universally evocative. Schütz's gentle yet adventurous spirit permeates the album, making it a perfect soundtrack for those drawn to the horizon -- whether real, remembered, or dreamt." --Patrick Ryder
