^Love that cover art too

More than a little Daliesque...but who cares about originality when it looks this awesome!
I take it the music featured on it isn’t exactly your cup of tea?

I just listened to the first song on it. It's one of his albums I really like.

My bad
I saw the cover and my mind said Blackdance. To be fair those three albums (Blackdance, Picture Music and Timewind) all share the brownish colour in their art works...which is why I often mention them as the coffee-trilogy.
Timewind though is very silky and melodic. Probably one of his most revered and also one that isn’t that hard to get into..by Schulze standards.

Some of my faves:





^ this produces something on me..  I don't know.. that sky..  and I always thought the left building roof was some kind of jet or rocket taking off and revolving around its axis (I may have a "sci-fi" bias).



Classic Yes anyone?





Another one that comes to mind:

Also: David Bowie - "Heroes". With very simple means it gets to express a lot...

And I don't know if this is one of my favourites, but it is definitely one of the weirdest:

Hi,

It's about the "energy" ... that quite often we don't see!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

You have two options: upload the image from your computer or, if you know a little, you can reference it from another place (ex: http://www.wikipedia.org/.../image.jpg).

Ah.. the functionality has a quirk.. at least for me, I have to press ENTER to a new line (free of text) to the bottom to be able to insert the image.



Two more:









Love the beautiful natural scene and how it gets disrupted by that kind of "portal" with human silhouette. Wow.
