Deus Arrakis is the forty-seventh album by Klaus Schulze.[1][2] It was released on 1 July 2022. It is the final album Schulze made before he died of renal failure in April 2022.[3][4] Taking in consideration the previously released multi-disc box sets (Silver Edition, Historic Edition, Jubilee Edition, Contemporary Works I, and Contemporary Works II), it could be viewed as Schulze's one hundred and eighth album.
The album was inspired by the 1965 Frank Herbert science-fiction novel Dune, and instigated by Schulze's recent collaboration with Hans Zimmer on the soundtrack for Denis Villeneuve's 2021 film adaptation. Dune was a longtime source of fascination for Schulze; he also made an album in 1979 inspired by the book, as well as a song for Herbert on his 1978 work X, a concept album of six "musical biographies."[5][4]
