Released in July, new vinyl editions of 'Einsjäger Und Siebenjäger', the classic 1974 album and 'Affenstunde'; Popol Vuh's classic debut album. Both albums have been cut at AIR Studios.

Originally released on the Liberty label in 1970, 'Affenstunde' (translated as 'Hour Of The Monkey') was one of the earliest albums to feature the use of a Moog synthesiser as a compositional tool.

Regarded as one of the finest albums by the German collective helmed by musical visionary Florian Fricke, ‘Einsjäger Und Siebenjäger’ took its title from mythological characters in the Mayan manuscripts from which the band took its name.
