Overview

Brain was a Hamburg-based record label prominent in the 1970s releasing several important Krautrock records by bands such as Neu!, Cluster and Guru Guru. Many of its more prominent records are currently being reissued on CD by Repertoire Records. In the middle of 1971, Rolf-Ulrich Kaiser's management style at Ohr caused two of his A&R men, Bruno Wendel and Günter Körber, to leave Ohr and set up their own record company, which they called Brain. Wendel & Korber brought Guru Guru with them from Ohr, and immediately signed Cluster, who had recorded one LP for Philips; they soon recorded and released Cluster II. Brain was rapidly a success throughout West Germany and much of western Europe, although had little presence in the US. Signings throughout the seventies and into the eighties included Neu!, Cluster, Harmonia, Klaus Schulze, Edgar Froese, Guru Guru, Grobschnitt, Novalis, Jane, Birth Control, Embryo, Popol Vuh, Curly Curve, Scorpions, Electric Sun, Accept and many more. A later reissue series called Rock On Brain saw many early Brain recordings reissued, although mostly with entirely different sleeves and even album titles. Brain also reissued a number of recordings licensed to their parent company Metronome, such as Amon Düül's first album Psychedelic Underground. Many came out on the M2001 label which is closely linked to Brain.

Notable quotes

“We do have an organ for understanding and recognizing moral facts. It is called the brain.”
— Paul Churchland, in A Neurocomputational Perspective (1989).
“It is an article of passionate faith among 'politically correct' biologists and anthropologists that brain size has no connection with intelligence; that intelligence has nothing to do with genes; and that genes are probably nasty fascist things anyway.”
— Richard Dawkins, in The Economist, Vol. 328 (1993).
“In the Arena of Brains no more salutary thing can befall a man than to meet his match. The discipline is stern, but not of the most adamant.”
— Norman Gale, A June Romance (Rugby: George E. Over, 1894), p. 66
“If we don't have good models to study the human brain, the potential for being able to address so much human suffering, disease, things that are very difficult to model in animals, we'll never reach.”
— Alysson Muotri as qtd. in “After Months In A Dish, Lab-Grown Minibrains Start Making 'Brain Waves'”, by Jon Hamilton, Shots Health News From NPR, (August 29, 2019).
“The brain is a mystery; it has been and still will be. How does the brain produce thoughts? That is the central question and we have still no answer to it.”
— Charles Scott Sherrington, as quoted in the article The Human Brain—Three Pounds of Mystery, in The Watchtower magazine (15 July 1978).
“The brain, is the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe.”
— James D. Watson, Watchtower Online Library.
