Faust were one of the most radical Krautrock groups of their era, using advanced studio techniques and electronics in a way that opened up new possibilities for studio composition. They turned a barn into a recording studio and would play along with loops live. They used tape loop samples of percussion and sounds to create interesting experimental rhythms. Faust-S/T and Faust IV are 2 great records to check out.
They did tour as a 2 piece band about 8 years ago. They took turns on guitar, percussion, old synths and tape machines. Great band!
