Ludwig's Law is the one and only album released by trio of Dieter Moebius, Conny Plank, and Mayo Thompson.

In 1983 the duo recorded a series of electronic tracks using an Emulator, an early form of sampling keyboard that enabled them to duplicate other instruments without having to deal with the musicians who played them.

According to the Earpiece website "topics include the fate of chickens owned by a 'farmer gabriel' and the effect of lack of sunlight on human intelligence.

"[2] Sky Records, which had released the first three Moebius & Plank album, rejected the master and Ludwig's Law was relegated to the vault.

"[3] Despite the rejection of Ludwig's Law by Sky, Moebius & Plank did decide to tour and perform the music, albeit without Mayo Thompson.
