Generally the term refers to the experimental bands who appeared in Germany in the early 1970s such as Amon Düül II, Can, Neu, Faust and later Kraftwerk.

However, the Italian psychedelic music did not remain immune to the Germany influence. Some authors like Franco Battiato and Franco Falsini were more influenced than others.
