Teddy played sax in zeuhl band Magma but afterwards made a lot of electronic albums, he made library releases but I found around 8 of them that were on regular labels. http://www.discogs.com/artist/Teddy+Lasry" rel="nofollow - http://www.discogs.com/artist/Teddy+Lasry |

He certainly belongs on here in my book - probably in Prog Electronic as you say. This guy was a pretty handy flute player as well as a former saxophonist - don't know why he switched to synths after leaving Magma, but two solo albums of his well worth a listen are 'E=MC˛' from 1976, and 'Seven Stones' from 1979, both of which are represented in the tubes above.

Hmm... PE probably isn't the best choice because of the drum track present on the first sample, but the rest seem to be pure PE ambiance. If not PE, then I'd say psych. ------------- http://ow.ly/8ymqg" rel="nofollow">

Great find! Did you forward the suggestion to a team, Andy? I ask because I find it very complicate to asses the music. I don't think it's prog electronic. The first samples are a sort of zeuhl-fusion heavy on the keyboards, which reminds a bit of another Magma-related project that is in Eclectic: Jean-Paul Prat. The latter samples sound to me more like Vangelis' symph-space stuff (like that from Heaven And Hell). I am also reminded of Grobschnitt, Solaris and Herbie Hancock. If the samples are representative of the balance of styles he used, then I'd say Eclectic is the best fit. |
