Jaki Liebezeit

Jaki Liebezeit, born May 26, 1938 in Dresden, is best known for his exceptional ‘’metronom’’ style of playing; other members of Can have suggested that he sounds as though he is ‘’half-man, half machine’’. Liebezeit provided drums, in his patented ‘’Motorik beat’’, for Michael Rother's late-1970s solo albums. In 1980, he became a member of Phantomband. Later he recorded with numerous musicians, such as Jah Wobble and Philip Jeck, with whom he produced an album for Jah Wobble's 30 Hertz Records, and has contributed drums and percussion to many albums as a guest throughout the years, such as the Depeche Mode album ‘Ultra’ and Brian Eno's album ‘Before and After Science’. Finally, he has worked with Burnt Friedman on the Secret Rhythms albums. Jaki Liebezeit passed away January 22, 2017 in Cologne.
