Earthstar was an electronic music group originally from Utica, New York, in the United States. Earthstar was the brainchild of keyboardist/synthesist Craig Wuest. After the release of their first album, Salterbarty Tales (1978), by Nashville-based Moontower Records, Wuest was encouraged by electronic music artist, composer, and producer Klaus Schulze to relocate to Germany where Earthstar was signed by Sky Records. Schulze co-produced their second album, French Skyline (1979).

Giuseppe Banfi, former keyboardist of Un Biglietto per l'Inferno started a solo career with an album in 1978. His own musical style is deeply inspired by the visionary sounds of Kosmische electronic music from Berlin. It features gorgeous spaced out synthesised soundscapes and floating minimal melodies. After the release of Galaxy my dear (1978), he published Ma, dolce vita (1979) and Hearth (1981) on Schulze's label, Innovative Communication.
