Out of Focus took their name from a Blue Cheer track, but had also been influenced by Soft Machine and Xhol Caravan, and rapidly established a distinctive style blending rock, jazz and psychedelic overtones. The band's music was known for the socio-political commentary present in 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 Out of Focus split up, bandleader Remigius Dreschler joined Embryo for a period of time before establishing his own project, Kontrast.

gollark: I actually found several good-looking ones:https://github.com/zardyh/amulethttps://github.com/kindl/Hypatiahttps://github.com/ptol/oczorI mean good-looking as in "will hopefully make my stuff less unreliable".
gollark: So, apart from the fact that for some reason some slots don't actually fill themselves when crafting (why?!) it mostly works.
gollark: Is it particularly type-safe?
gollark: I am seriously considering it.
