Notes[]

There are several variations to this album's title: BODY LOVE, BODY LOVE VOL. II, ADDITIONS TO THE SOUNDTRACK OF BODY LOVE and even MOOGETIQUE. Despite that differences, the music is the same.

The music on BODY LOVE 2 has nothing to do with the movie "Body Love" Schulze made the soundtrack for, except Stardancer II being a remix of the track Stardancer used in the film.

In fact, Schulze's new record label ISLAND asked for an album like MOONDAWN or BODY LOVE, thinking MIRAGE was a little too quiet and complex. So Schulze agreed to produce BODY LOVE 2.

In 2007 BODY LOVE VOL. 2 was the twenty-eighth Schulze album reissued by REVISTED RECORDS as part of a series of Schulze album reissues. The reissue bonus track Buddy Laugh is from the same recording session.
