Missing here ... GERT EMMENS ... by far one of the best. Also, I think, EAT LIGHTS BECOME LIGHTS ... maybe even JOHN SERRIE ... and you can find more on the show. 

Thanks, Moshi! I'm loving the GERT EMMENS! This is exactly what I've been yearning for. Combo Blade Runner and TD with impeccable sound engineering.
 
I already own a lot of John Serrie. Forgot all about Guy Guden's Space Pirate Radio. Thanks for the reminder! Still have to check out Eat Lights...

Hope all is well with Mike, Jubal, and the girls.Wink

Sincerely,
Raul

I like a lot of this ("Extreme Northern Light"), some I don't ("Solar Maximum"). More to explore. 
Thanks, Ken!

I forgot about Breidablik and Kosmischer Läufer! I'm loving the Girón and Zytospace stuff. 
Thanks, Ian!

Zombi's best albums for a denser electronic sound are Zombi, Cosmos, Escape Velocity and Shape Shift.






This Zombi stuff is a little too aggressive for me. I think what I like most in the electronic music that I like is the lack or absence of drum and bass substitutes. The sequencing or pacing provided by the other instruments seems to be enough. Still, I do like the "Siberia II" song a lot!
Thanks!

There's also a recent thread on here somewhere about similar artists to Tangerine Dream(assuming you like them). 

Yep. Check. 
I checked out their stuff about five years ago. Definitely one of the best PE artists from the Naughties. 
Thanks!

I posted this figuring it would take a while to generate any responses but Geez! You've done me proud! Thanks for all the suggestions. Though I'm really looking for recent publications (the past 10 years), I can tell there's some really cool stuff here. 

THANKS!

Gert has some really good albums, yes. Again, his stuff might be a little tough and/or expensive to get outside Europe at this time. There's some stuff on YT.

Jonn (not John) Serrie mainly records spacemusic/ambient. I wouldn't recommend his music to listeners looking for music akin to TD, Schulze, Synergy, Shreeve, etc., at least not right away. And the Stars Go With You and both Planetary Chronicles volumes are excellent, though.

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

In an act of pure Folly, I almost forgot to mention Michael Shipway. Smile

Way back in the 90s, I listened to most of them! Bekki's may be very hard to find.

I maintain that Mark Shreeve ruled the roost with album after excellent album as he transitioned from Berlin School to a more melodic, edgier style with Thoughts of War / Assassin to Legion (his best), Crash Head and Nocturne. The live album Collide was his last before he formed Redshift.

The one band everyone forgets about is Wavestar (John Dyson and Dave Ward-Hunt). Only a handful of albums, but Moonwind is one of the best EM albums to emerge from the UK. Clap
I've seen all but one of those artists listed above at two EMMA festivals in Derby during the mid-1990's  and I also have  Wavestar's Moonwind on CD. Although Bekki Williams' CD's are hard to find, she's easy to find on YouTube, if I remember to spell her first name correctly. Smile

Majeure's only other proper CD release is 2015's Termination Shock, which is available as a French import.

The last three Majeure albums have all had cassette releases, no CD, but the latest one — Mass Flashback — is available on LP.

ARC (or Arc) = Ian Boddy & Mark Shreeve, two guys who were already EM legends before they teamed up.

IMO, Fracture is their best effort. "Rapture" is the best sequel to Rubycon I've heard...
