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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

^^^ It's the same here but with the other album Yeah, Integrati is a unique album
^^ That's great! It's a shame you lost the cover though
^ I knew you would vote for them
Ended up voting for Space Art, like I said before.

Elektriktus for me. Space Art are on the safe side from what I've listened to. I love me experimental stuffs, and Electronic Mind Waves delivers.

Love Electronic Mind Waves, don't own the other album but sounds good. Seems unfair voting when I've listened to one album many times over years and never heard the other in full. but Elektriktus it is.
Speaking of Integrati...Disintegrati, there's no album I like more than it, though quite a few equals.

Seriously, don't buy the vinyl reissue Pierre, it has more pops than some of my LPs in bad condition, some awful distortions in some parts and the sound is really cold to make it even worse

Someone has to fall for it, to tell the others I cleaned it the other day, but it will probably not make much difference, especially since it's the first time I'll play it on my new turntable
