Tangerine Dream's Force Majeure!

Hi everyone,

This TD album just blows me away, deep, strange, & beautiful. Funny story about it from the Wikipedia:

The distortion of the bass sequence on "Thru Metamorphic Rocks" was the result of a burnt-out transistor in the mixing desk. When the band heard the result, they decided to keep it.

Great idea!

Bo Hansson's Music Inspired by Lord of the Rings & Magician's Hat

Hi everyone,

Bo Hansson was an amazing instrumental prog-rock Swedish musician. Featured on this show are his first & second solo albums. His first inspired by Tolkien's great Middle Earth books, & his second emerging from the same time period. Puff em if you got em, relax, let your inner Hobbit loose to dance a little!

Tangerine Dream's Zeit & Atem!

Hi everyone,

More great music from this legendary German electronic group. Regarding 1972's Zeit, the 2002 reissue notes that: "Zeit, which means 'time', was based on the philosophy that time was in fact motionless and only existed in our own minds." Space music for all!

Tangerine Dream's Electronic Meditation & Alpha Centauri!

Hi everyone,

These are the first & second albums from this legendary German electronic group, released in 1970 & 1971. They were coming up with new sounds where they had not existed, or existed so well as music. Come back with me a-ways to such great source music!

Port Blue's The Airship!

Hi everyone,

An online description describes Port Blue as "an Ambient Electronic side-project by Adam Young, founded in 2006, which has a different music aesthetic to that of Owl City."

OK, I haven't heard Owl City yet, but I really like this album a lot. Lifts up my low late-winter spirits. Try it with me too!

Dustin Wong & Takako Minekawa' s Are Euphoria & Dustin Wong & Takako Minekawa & Good Willsmith' s Exit Future Heart!

Hi everyone,

Here is what is going on here: "Exit Future Heart follows three Good Willsmith albums released on Umor Rex and three albums by Dustin Wong and Takako Minekawa on Thrill Jockey. Recorded live at home in Chicago over the course of one night when Wong and Minekawa passed through on tour, Exit Future Heart showcases a program of spontaneous compositions that flow through mutated tropes of rock music, focused ambient/kosmische synthesis, and expanses of raw textural sculpting."
