Love me some Neuronium, but they're no match for Schulze's finest hour.
I love all three coffee flavoured Schulze albums from around that time (Blackdance, Picture Music and Timewind) with Blackdance being a particular favourite. Last cut Voice of Syn is breathtakingly beautiful.

One thing. Some Velvet Phasing is kinda like the aperitif that bridges the two main courses on Blackdance. I found the opener Ways of Changes on ze tube:

i see you put up the Schulze track from the Virgin anniversary collection - great compilation of prog from that label at the time - with some rarities!

Neuronium I thought were okay. I like the use of those cheesy early '70s era drum machines. Even though it's not my fave, Blackdance is still classic Schulze and it gets the vote.

I had no idea that not only were Neuronium still active today, but that they were on the Archives! When I fist started looking into the site many years ago they were not on here!
I'm still going to vote for `Blackdance', as it's not only one of my favourite albums, but it was THE album that first got me into the electronic genre (thanks to the urging of David!). Strange, because it's not a particularly easy album to get into.
I do enjoy parts of this particular Neuronium clip, but I don't like it when the lead keyboards start doing that loopy cheesy `wigging out' in a few spots! I'll take the subtlety of the Schulze track this time around!
It's realty disappointing, but in all my years of collecting and attending record fairs, etc, I have NEVER come across a single Neuronium release. Might have to track them down online. I used to really enjoy the debut `Quasar 2C361'.

Again not my forte.....but I suppose Neuronium has more going on than that track by Schulze though I listened to most of the Black Dance lp on you tube and I did like it though it drags at times which I suppose it part of the ambient aspect.
Of course for obvious reasons it sounds to me like TD.
