Cluster is a seminal German experimental musical group that came into prominence in the 1970s, primarily associated with the krautrock and ambient music movements. The founding members were Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Moebius, who began collaborating as part of the avant-garde trio Kluster along with Conrad Schnitzler. When Schnitzler left the group, Roedelius and Moebius continued as a duo, renaming themselves Cluster. Over the years, they became known for their minimalist, improvisational style, which was unconventional and often incorporated electronics, early synthesizers, and various acoustic instruments.

Cluster's work from the early 1970s onwards was pioneering in electronic music, with their albums being cornerstones of the genre. However, the titles you've listed (Rouen, Traveler, In Reverse, etc.) do not correlate with their known discography up until 2023, which might suggest a conflating of artists or an entirely different act. Cluster's classic albums include "Zuckerzeit," "Sowiesoso," and collaborations with Brian Eno such as "Cluster & Eno" and "After the Heat," which have been influential to many musicians in the realm of electronic and ambient music. Their exploration into soundscapes continues to resonate with contemporary audiences and musicians alike.
