Einzelgänger is a 1975 electronic experimental album composed, produced and performed by Giorgio Moroder. It was first released in Germany on Moroder's label, Oasis, and later by Neil Bogart on his label, Casablanca Records.[2][3]
As described by music critic Simon Reynolds, the album "teems with pitter-pattering drum machine beats and unsettling processed vocal-stutters that recall the ethereal whimsy of early Kraftwerk", and foreshadowed Moroder's work two years later on "I Feel Love", a pioneering track for electronic disco music.[4]
