I would say that several albums are similar coming
out of the maturing German Kosmiche scene from
1975 to 1977. Micheal's Departures, Ashra New Age
of Earth, TD's Ricochet and Schulze Moondawn all
have similarities to one another. The sequencer was
being born and these guys were working together,
developing the sound and borrowing from one
another.
Kinda like all the bands associated with the
Canterbury scene, many had similar things going on
and sound the same often to my ear.
I agree musically with you on Triumvirat being
similar to ELP, my only problem with Triumvirat is the
hokie lyrics IMO. I thought Lake was preaching a
philosophy to speak, T-rat seems to be writing a few
words to sing in the song, the same problem I
have with Rush's fairy tales.
Instrumental I like them but Geddy has to open his
mouth and its goofy sci-fi stuff to me, his vocal range
and everything this side of the sun lyrics just make it
too tedious.
He was musical director, co-composer and
co–scriptwriter on the acclaimed film
Koyaanisgatsi—the sound track featuring his
collaborations with composer Phillip Glass. He also
worked with Jack Nitsche scoring several projects
including the controversial 9 1/2 Weeks. Hoenig also
composed music for the television show Max
Headroom.
