Organisation (band)
Encyclopedia : O : OR : ORG : Organisation (band)
Organisation was an experimental "Krautrock" band, that was the predecessor of Kraftwerk. In addition to the founding members of Kraftwerk, Florian Schneider-Esleben and Ralf Hütter, Organisation consisted of Basil Hammoudi, Butch Hauf and Alfred Mönicks (alias Fred Monicks). Peter Martini and Paul Lorenz were sometimes also included in Organisation.
Their only album Tone Float, produced and engineered by Konrad "Conny" Plank, was released on the RCA Victor label in the UK in 1970. Available in Germany only as an import, sales were poor and RCA opted to drop the band shortly afterwards, at which point they disbanded.
