Out of Focus (band)

Out Of Focus is a German "Krautrock" rock fusion band, formed in late-1968 in Munich with Hennes Herring on KB (mainly Hammond organ), Remi Dreschler on guitars, Moran Neumüller on vocals and winds, Klaus Spöri on drums and Stefan Wisheu on bass. They took their name from a Blue Cheer track, but had also been listening to Soft Machine and Xhol Caravan, and rapidly established a distinctive style blending rock, jazz and psychedelic overtones. A unique facet was the profound socio-political awareness of Moran Neumüller's songs. Although typically Munich styled (with Embryo and Sahara connections) they are often compared to Canterbury fusion and Scandinavian jazz-rock acts. After the band split, main-man Remigius Dreschler went to "Embryo" for a while and then established his own project: Kontrast.
