Two more albums I never heard of.......and why is it that these albums always sound like Tangerine Dream as well as movie soundtracks...?

^ Aren't there a lot of Symphonic Prog bands that sound like Yes, Genesis, ELP, etc, but managed to do add their unique perspective to the music? Probably, someone that doesn't know the genre well, will say that Marillion sounds like Genesis. I think it's the same thing here, altough Space Art reminds me more of Vangelis and Jarre than TD.

Yep...there are a lot of symphonic bands that sound alike.
I do need to expand my knowledge of 'electronic' prog ....but there are so many other prog things  that I'm still collecting even as an old guy (64), and I haven't got around to this genre yet.
I do own most of the well known things by TD, Vangelis, etc and of course many 'Krautrock' things.
 
So much music...so little time.

Yeah, I understand. I listen to plenty of music every day but it's never as much as I'd want. I'd like to expand my knowledge of Jazz, but Prog keeps me busy Tongue

^Funny, I don't think either of them sound like Tangerine Dream.

Me neither. If TD and Vangelis is the only electronic music he has, I think it's perfectly understandable.

I agree. I overlooked that. Wu, which albums do you like best?

Well...of the two tracks in this one I prefer Space Art....though my problem with this type of music is the repetitive trance aspect of the songs.......they seem to just go and then end. For me they would be music to go to bed at night with or when reading....and I don't mean that in a negative way.
I'll listen to the other threads on this to see if those are any different.

Another tie, another random winner. Elektriktus and Klaus Schulze on the next round.
