Thanks Fret for putting me onto Ian B and Erik W - EC12. Album growing on me more and more
It would seem the spirit of Tangerine Dream is alive and well and in Sunderland of all places.
Ironic really as I am married to a Makem and we travel there quite a lot.

Re: Electronic Music
It's a really cool album.
Wollo's solo stuff tends to be a bit new-agey but his collaborative works on Din are more aggressive.

Re: Electronic Music
A couple of recommendations for the 40% discount off selected Din CD's at Bandcamp.
Nigel Mullaney '31 Days'
A long-time collaborator with label-boss Ian Boddy and member of EM-supergroup Node, Mullaney set himself a goal of writing & recording one new piece per day for a whole month, producing 4 hours of music which has been edited down into a 70-minute album by Ian Boddy. Despite a long career in music, this is his first solo release.
The music is effectively a live performance and spontaneous.
A beautiful journey through soundscapes and rhythms. Excellent - and the production is stunning
Also well-worth checking out:
D'Voxx 'Telegraphe' (a favourite of mine)
Mazmoneth 'Music by Mirrors'
Ian Boddy 'Altair'
Node 'Live'
Bluetech 'Liquid Geometries'
Go to Din's Bandcamp page and look for the 40% discount markers.
Very limited period so be quick!
Tracks can be listened to and every CD purchase entitles you to download and unlimited streaming of the album, in the format of your choice (Mp3, FLAC, WAV, etc.)

Re: Electronic Music
Very strange.
Looking back in this thread I see it is EXACTLY 1 year ago that I was getting the TD studio remasters that were also contained in the massive ' In Search of Hades' box.
Without being aware of this I have only today started listening to the live concert recordings from this set and am really enjoying them. For some odd reason I haven't dared open the box up until now. But some inner voice was telling me to play TD live albums.
There are three full concert recordings spread over 6 CD's, all from concerts in London in the 70's. A couple have comical introductions from John Peel who championed their early LP's.
For TD fans , essential.
For everyone else - you don't know what you're missing.

Re: Electronic Music
A TD oddity that has been on heavy rotation here for the last few days is this:
'Somnambulistic Imagery'
This is a 2CD bootleg, audience recording - so there is quite a lot of background chatter from people that can occasionally be heard. The recording quality itself isn't too bad at all. Certainly good enough to be a fun listen.
The cover photo is misleading though, it shows the 6-piece touring line-up from the 2000's where this concert was made with the Froese / Franke / Haslinger trio formation from 1986. Which is the tour that I saw them on - so this album brings back some fine memories for me.
The actual sleeve shot should be this:
Not essential - but nice.

Re: Electronic Music
I have seen some of JMJ's New Year livestream and it's a blast. He is playing live in a studio but there is a complete virtual projection of his avatar playing to a huge crowd inside a computer-generated Notre Dame cathedral.
A grooving TechnoDance party worthy of Armin van Buuren.
This is the full 55 minute performance, but skip the first 5 mins as it is an ambient intro where nothing happens.
