Love me some Neuronium, but they're no match for Schulze's finest hour. I love all three coffee flavoured Schulze albums from around that time (Blackdance, Picture Music and Timewind) with Blackdance being a particular favourite. Last cut Voice of Syn is breathtakingly beautiful. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

One thing. Some Velvet Phasing is kinda like the aperitif that bridges the two main courses on Blackdance. I found the opener Ways of Changes on ze tube: ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

i see you put up the Schulze track from the Virgin anniversary collection - great compilation of prog from that label at the time - with some rarities! |

^ It was the only video I found of that track, but I didn't look into the compilation. I'll investigate |

Neuronium are new to me but that's one of my least fave KS albums from the '70s. Be back. ------------- Magma America Great Make Again |

I voted for Neuronium, whose early albums are highly underrated. Digital Dream is a true EM classic. ------------- https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ipg=50&_sop=1&_rdc=1&_ssn=musicosm" rel="nofollow - eBay |

Neuronium I thought were okay. I like the use of those cheesy early '70s era drum machines. Even though it's not my fave, Blackdance is still classic Schulze and it gets the vote. ------------- Magma America Great Make Again |

I had no idea that not only were Neuronium still active today, but that they were on the Archives! When I fist started looking into the site many years ago they were not on here! I'm still going to vote for `Blackdance', as it's not only one of my favourite albums, but it was THE album that first got me into the electronic genre (thanks to the urging of David!). Strange, because it's not a particularly easy album to get into. I do enjoy parts of this particular Neuronium clip, but I don't like it when the lead keyboards start doing that loopy cheesy `wigging out' in a few spots! I'll take the subtlety of the Schulze track this time around! It's realty disappointing, but in all my years of collecting and attending record fairs, etc, I have NEVER come across a single Neuronium release. Might have to track them down online. I used to really enjoy the debut `Quasar 2C361'. |

^ I hope I'll like the Schulze album, I only listened to that sample. I didn't expect it would get much more votes than Neuronium. Yeah, "Quasar" is really nice. I never saw any of their albums and I live right next to Spain, it's probably normal  |

Not a bad result. Blackdance will continue against the winner of the next poll. |

Giving it to the Schulze man. Neuronium have always been just okay to me honestly, doesn't come close to Schulze at his best. -------------

Again not my forte.....but I suppose Neuronium has more going on than that track by Schulze though I listened to most of the Black Dance lp on you tube and I did like it though it drags at times which I suppose it part of the ambient aspect. Of course for obvious reasons it sounds to me like TD. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |
