It's good to discover that Ian Boddy and Mark Shreeve are both included on ProgArchives. Thumbs Up

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


Just added an artist you might enjoy. Klaus Morlock is a synthesizer based artists that has created a mythos of 70's horror film soundtracks, all recorded in the last 8 years or so. He has done everything to make it sound like these scores are coming straight off the film's audio track. So its not the typical Berlin School electronic fare. Its much more stylized to match period, dark, low budget horror films. Its very interesting and enjoyable.

ARC are a great suggestion, I don't have that one so will pick it up.

That Umbra album is terrific, really enjoying it, thanks for the reco.

an early prog electronic album (1974) that hardly anyone knows: "Meditation" by Eberhard Schoener

...

Hi,

He has more than one magnificent thing ... his album TRANCEFORMATION is, for me, one of the greatest listens ever, even if you dislike Andy Summers going nuts on the first cut which is really cool actually ... but it brings up Gregorian Chants really well, even as meditative pieces later, which I think is being ignored.

I have something like 7 or 8 of his albums, and now I need to listen to them again, and I remember the one where he took the sounds of birds flying and turned it into a tapestry of keyboards ... it was really pretty is all I remember at this moment ... in many ways Eberhard Schoener is more of an "experimentalist" (in his early days!!!!!! -- witness the "Bali Agung" album), until much later when I think he became a conductor and composer, but none of the work I am aware of was as good as a lot of these original pieces.

Side issue ... I think that he gave Sting his first singing moments, and I wonder if it was during these sessions that they met and went on to form The Police. It would be likely to be the other way around as the group toured so much as to make an appearance on a ES album nearly impossible.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Hi, Since this is recommendations, and since I am shameless, I thought maybe you good folk might get a kick out of my own track. I'm working on writing this kind of music (prog electronic). Would appreciate the feedback.


This was probably in poor taste, self promotion, but...shameless. Thanks. The recommendations so far have been awesome.

Awesome suggestion, Jean! (as usual) Thanks!

Also thanks to the Mosh Man for the Trance Formation suggestion--which I also like very much.

Why doesn't this guy get more credit for his influence on the creation of the Ambient Music scene? Eno must have heard his music when he was in Germany with Bowie, cuz though Discreet Music came out before the Low / Lodger / Heroes albums Ambient One: Music for Airports follows.
