I sometimes think it would be cheaper making houses out of Jewel cases...they'd certainly be more solid. I gave up counting how many discs I own years ago...but having said I've sold a load recently (mind I've bought quite a few as welltimer wrote:24db wrote:ouch...eBay time Tim

There is definitely a certain "chemistry" between Edgar and Johannes, this is obvious on Kyoto. However, unless either has some archive material, yet to be released, I fear your request may never be answered mate.HYPERBOREA wrote:Although a lot of the material doesn't quite come off for me I do wonder if maybe compositionally Johannes is stronger than Edgar. I have been listening to Instant City which I think is less quirky than most of Johannes's albums and in a way more tangerine dream like. I somehow think that had Instant City been a Tangerine Dream release or a solo Edgar release we would all be marvelling at the overall strength of the tracks. I honestly think that a "best of" Johannes release including most of White Out would actually be a match for a best of Edgar Release. The great shame of course is that they are not still working together.

Also my favorite cut from a cool album. I have "chilly moons" on a couple of photo slideshows that I made.epsilon75 wrote:I am a big fan of "Kyoto" especially the superb "Chilly Moons"prophetfive wrote:There is definitely a certain "chemistry" between Edgar and Johannes, this is obvious on Kyoto.
