Re: GTA V

I would expected interviews with Edgar to appear or similar things by now. After all this is the biggest project TD has ever participated in - at least since Thief (interesting similarity in topic!). GTA V has already earned Rockstar a billion (!) dollars. It is played world-wide by hundreds of thou...

I'm a huge fan of Hammer's MV music, and do NOT think it's a TD ripoff. Of course it sounds very "80s", just like TD sounded 80s at the time. But I could never mistake one of the MV tracks (I also own The Complete Collection) for TD - Hammer really managed to create a special soundscape fo...

As far as I remember, this show was running on a local public TV station (Northern Germany) and was dedicated to independent music. Just did a quick search on the net and didn't find much about the show, let alone the guy with the hat. Seems he will remain a shadowy mystery forever. 8) I suspect tha...

Ok, I finally found a place for the poor German fans to watch it:

http://www.megavideo.com/?d=ZFQ8N57A

If interested, you can even download it by using the same file id at megaupload.com, but the quality is not that much higher than YouTube.

Enjoy! :wink:

There must be some automatism at work there. No way the clowns from Sony Music sit there all day and compare each uploaded clip with their catalogue of titles... Just my guess but could be it stays online if you deliberately spell the title wrong... :D No, it's some kind of blacklist for sure. That...

Brilliant clip, p. l. a. y. b. a. c. k. or not. 8) Just look at what the monitors show - it's not even an audio program, just the directory of some diskettes... :D I bet none of the equipment in the clip is actually TD's. TD didn't use keyboard stands like that AFAIK. To me it looks more like every...

Didn't Sony buy BMG? BMG bought Private Music I thought as well so if this is all true then Sony ends up owning Private Music. Thanks for the information, I wasn't aware of that. This explains it of course. It's still ridiculous though, because all that Sony does with it is block it, but not sell i...

Well, I'm quite surprised to find out that Sun Gate is the property of Sony Music Entertainment and therefore seems to be blocked at least in Germany... As far as I know, the track has been re-released on TDI/eastgate several times. So I thought the rights are now owned by TDI/eastgate, especially s...

Exclusive: Sun Gate / Sungate video clip

It was quite an effort to get this off a 20 year old VHS tape, but since it never seemed to show up on YouTube I had to do it myself. :wink: Here's a probably ultra-rare clip of Sun Gate/Sungate, recorded from German television in 1989. In my opinion, this track also has the best guitar work ever on...

Oh, thanks for the hint! :D Well, the first thing that strikes me is the obvious overcompression during mastering. I don't know if the so-called "loudness war" has already been discussed here (see http://dynamicrange.de for more info), but the dynamics of at least this track are very low -...

And again, no chance to prelisten anywhere - not on Eastgate, not on Mooncyberpop or Amazon or MySpace... No other band makes such a secret of how their new releases sound, I guess. All others bombard you with excerpts and "CHECK THIS OUT!" links. :wink:

Now that you remind me - right. I remember some very low resolution RealMedia files which I once downloaded. Maybe this footage has meanwhile shown up somewhere in higher quality.

Re: Rare - Edgar for the recording of Stuntman

Hi, I don't want to start a "Youtube Treasure hunt" Why not? Since I don't have time to scan YouTube all the time for all the bands I like, I really appreciate links like this! "Klanggeber" - what a great word! 8) Edgar should really get hold of the rights for this and release i...

that would be the 'unbearable drug music' by Edgar Froese and the Tangerine Dream band then? ;) Don't think so, some people in the comments seem to have found out what it is. Also I don't think it's very likely the whole movie was overdubbed with TD music without hearing any actors... :D Maybe the ...
