I really don't know.
My experience is limited to falling asleep to Phaedra.

I have 28 of their CDs and when I leave and come back... I plan on going through each one chronologically without listening to anything else. I haven't listened to them much in a while, so I'm due for it. I think I can do it, since they're one of my favorite bands ever. I'm a huge electronic nut though.

Via kraurock and Battiato + Eno I'm getting more and more into electronics.

Will do!

You'll want Sulle Corde di Aries and Clic, and Pollution isn't far behind those two.

I just finished watching Children Of Men (stupidly translated Children Of [the] Father in Romanian ). Amazing. Brilliant.

What do you have?

I don't know. I haven't heard it in forever. I'll listen to it again here soon for the hell of it. Listen to one piece and the rest are exactly the same! I'll get back to you on the recommendations. Kinda chating with 75 people at the same time right now. Alright. That's cool.

Aight.

You got pretty much everything covered from 1970 to 1984, which is good. In fact, awesome. You're just missing Logos and Quichotte (or Pergamon), and you can't live without those.

Can't really recommend you something else than what you have from 1985 to 1990. I hate Underwater Sunlight, like Le Parc, the rest is meh. No need to fill the Melrose spot with Optical Race or the other one (I forgot its name!!!), it's no priority.

1990-1995 equally bad, but you got Turn Of The Tides, which is one of the best from the period. Maybe 220 Volt Live, for the live feeling, it's pretty good. I also liked stuff like Quinoa, but that one was limited.

1996-2002 Here's where you can improve. Mars Polaris. Compulsory! Goblin's Club. Good! (or quite the same quality as Turn Of The Tides, but that's good for me). Valentine Wheels, Sohoman, good lives! Just stay the many, many, many, many, goddamn many compilations. Or from the Hollywood Years. They're worse then you can imagine. You have Seven Letters From Tibet, which is great, I love that album.

the III millenium, dog! - You could definitely enjoy La Divina Commedia the trilogy, especially the first two, or especially Purgatorio. Then there's Dream Mixes 3 and 4 - quite good remixes. It gets more complicated nowadays, when Froese just add layers of new age and beats to older music or new music itself, nothing brilliant going around here. Maybe some DVDs, like the Tempodrom or the Shepard's Bush concerts will please you. I didn't like Jeanne D'Arc, but it was a strong album, it should be in the TD collection. Stay away from Phaedra 2005 or I won't talk to you every again. Summer and Springtime in Nagasaki aren't amazing, but there's good stuff innit.


This enough for you?
