Notorische Reflexe
German experimental industrial and noise music project from the early 1980s underground scene.
About
Notorische Reflexe was a German experimental and industrial music project active during the early 1980s. Operating within the broader European industrial and noise underground, the group produced avant-garde works characterized by harsh electronics, atonal compositions, and experimental sound manipulation typical of the post-industrial era. Their discography, though modest, documents the era's DIY aesthetic and underground distribution networks, including cassette releases on independent labels like Stechapfel. The project's output reflects the experimental music culture of early 1980s Germany, a period marked by prolific cassette culture and challenging avant-garde practices. While detailed information about specific members and conceptual frameworks remains limited, the group's existence and releases underscore the vibrant but often underdocumented nature of European underground experimental music from this period. Their work represents the kind of uncompromising, non-commercial artistic practice that characterized the industrial and noise music underground before widespread documentation and archival efforts.
