I hadn't known Asgard (heard the sample), but have and like the other albums, still one stands out for me. I voted for Heldon's Stand By -- really love that album.

Moving Gelatine Plates over Heldon and Xing Sa. I think i'm one of the few who prefers MGP's debut to the one with the cow on the cover.Big smile

Pretty much thisBig smile

I love that Heldon album. Very special to me. I remember when I first got into it - must've played it every day all summer. I used to listen to it while walking down by this beautiful forest lake, and as the season changed with colours and leaves on the ground, so did the music. Still a very very special album to meHeart

Although I'm not a fan of electronic music Stand By was so easy for me to get into, well of course it's not Tangerine Dream like electronic but still I have to pick my electronic albums very carefully. The first Heldon album I got was Interface so I really didn't expect anything like this, the first track is so huge and heavy that I was immediately hooked on it. And how can you not like any album where Patrick Gauthier and Klaus Blasquiz are participating?!!

It was between Heldon and The Gelatine Plates Movers for me but eventually I went with later. And you're definitely not alone on this one John, I do too prefer this one on Genius Hans, I'm not sure why but I just do Big smile
I wanted to include their more recent album Removing in the poll instead of this one but I passed since I'm sure not a lot of people investigated that album, although that's what these polls are all about, ahhh nevermind...

Yes it is! and very recommended to fans of Setna, but actually it's fairly new to me so I haven't got to the bottom of it ...yet.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.
