Hi, Ultima Thule Parts 1 & 2 Oszillator Planet Concert on Ossiach Live I have all the other albums and heard them ... I can safely say I have not heard these and am not surprised that their references are so low ... As for Electronic Meditation, I really think that is not a "Tangerine Dream...

Hi, A photograph does in fact require a technical understanding of how all the functions of the camera work. Not necessarily ... I did not have the equipment and shot many bands and spent time with Gong and they used a set of my pictures for over a year on a tour of theirs ... I only worked in a pho...

Hi, I always thought in a twisted sort of way that Tangerine Dream was some kind of ... apparition ... from the David Lean films ... it's the only thing that no film that TD has ever scored has given them a chance to work with and play on ... and as such ... the soundtracks for the most part are ......

Hi, Unless you are the collector from heck and you gotta have that copy ... my answer is ... that is all past news ... and the rubycon has been crossed.

Hi, I think it was Ohr Records or something like it ... when these came out, hi-fi was fairly new, and FM radio was about to hit the really big time in America. With a conventional record player the subtleties of the sound moving around from one side to the other was not as apparent and enjoyable as...

Hi, Weird that anyone would have doubted that Edgar could not have done this alone ... well, maybe not to the extent that we know TD today ... since obviously there is a path there already ... but Edgar's solo albums show that he can ... and will continue to do his own thing.

Hi, I would buy it for the music ...

Hi, I can still put on ATEM and enjoy the living heck out of it ... somehow, just like ALPHA CENTAURI, I can still see a lot of images in those quiet soundscapes ... and to be honest with you ... would love to see TD do a few more of those ... sometimes things are so light, and subtle ... and that t...

Hi,

On another thread someone mentioned that the online version of (at least) one song was not as long as the same album on iTunes ... can someone verify that?

I don't get it ... so Edgar wants me to buy stuff from iTunes instead of his own house?
