Notes2017 release from the electronic music pioneers. Tangerine Dream have been a fundamental influence on electronic and progressive music since their formation in West Berlin, 1967. Inspiring genres, musicians and other art forms, from The Future Sound of London to Porcupine Tree, the widely popular TV show Stranger Things (for which their music also featured in) to seminal video game Grand Theft Auto V (for which they helped to write the soundtrack). The group have also received seven Grammy nominations, written over 100 studio albums and were led by Edgar Froese, who developed an instantly recognizable synth-based instrumental music based on a meditative musical experience that came to prominence in the '70s and '80s. Quantum Gate promises an updated, contemporary development of their trademark sound: sequencer-driven electronica covering a wide range of moods and atmospheres from ambient soundscapes to energetic, upbeat moments. The album began as a concept and series of musical sketches by Froese before he passed away in 2015. Remaining band members Thorsten Quaeschning, Ulrich Schnauss and Hoshiko Yamane worked together to realize Edgar's visions and expectations of a conceptual album that attempts to translate quantum physics and philosophy into music. New member Ulrich Schnauss comments: "at the moment hardly any other area of science questions our concept of reality (linearity of time etc.) as profoundly as research in Quantum physics - it's no surprise therefore that Edgar was drawn to these ideas since he had always aimed at reminding listeners of the existence of 'unopened doors'.

  • Waited with bated breath - it was worth it!

    After Edgar Froese passed away it was easy to assume that was it for one of the most innovative bands ever to come along, after 45 wonderful years of capturing our ears and stimulating our minds. When I heard that some of the younger members of the band wanted to keep it going, I kept my fingers crossed. It was obvious that Froese had been the genius behind the band for all those decades, and no one was sure the others could pull it off. Especially after both their sax player and their phenomenal percussionist left, I wasn't too hopeful. But it's good, very good. I would not say it's TD's best, not by a long shot. But I am breathing a sigh of relief right now. One especially good thing about it is that the old-school fans who loved their early 1970s psychedelic stuff like it, but so do the younger, more flexible people who don't curse TD's newer music (some people's brains really congeal as they age, and can't see growth for what it is). They do a great job of combining some of that old sound with more modern rhythmic complexity and tempo in ways that come across as very natural and fun to listen to. It's not ear candy, it's a good, solid meal for your ears.
