Serge Bringolf Strave - Vision. This was definititely a very ncie zeuhl album! However, it was not very inventive or innovative, sort of repeating most of the genre's cliches. It did highlight its best parts, though. Not memorable after first listen, will have to revisit.
Manuel Gottsching & Michael Hoenig - Early Waters. I always love those relentless, lengthy soundscapes, really krautrock's (or Berlin School's too, for that matter) very own characteristic. I could listen to this, E2-E4, "Hallogallo" etc. on repeat for days! This one is very good! Tangerine Dream - Ricochet. I am really glad I revisited Tangerines yestarday and rediscovered their genius once again. Ricochet is such a great album. BTW, I believe the main motiff of Part 1 is the same thing they played at the Coventry Cathedral concert, right? Anyway, I love their melodic, classical electronic stuff! Egg - The Polite Force. Most of you, or at least those, who I frequently meet on other threads, know this is my absolute #1 of all time. Wow. It's just so extremely good. Long Piece No. 3 is so perfect, varied. It's nineteen minutes long and has moments that are probably the most sophisticated in the whole prog rock history (I'm sure) and even spacey ambient parts. Killer! Peter Frohmader - Musik Aus Dem Schattenreich. (twice) This has been playing on repeat lately here in ALotOfBottle cavern. I am currently working on a review for this dark, sinister masterpiece and I want this to be the best review I've ever written, sort of to commemorate my promotion to a title of a "Prog Reviewer" (again, big thanks to all admins and those who congratulated). Anyway, guys, check it out, you won't regret it. In fact, I've worked out a deal with my former bandmate (a stoner/doom fanatic) that we would meet for a little jam the day after tomorrow and play something in the vein of this one. Love it! |

Magma - Udu Wudu. A very good Magma album, although I like the group at their jazzier. This is more like a continuation from where Kohntrakosz left off. As always - very well written and well performed. That throbbing bass is also something that I love.
Agitation Free - Second. Had not listened to Agitation Free for a while then and thought how many great musicians passed through its lineup (Michael Hoenig, Lutz Ulbrich, Harald Grosskopf etc.) I like this one a lot more than their debut, because I don't find Eastern and African influences to sit well in their mainly jam-oriented style. Tangerine Dream - Phaedra. One of my favorites from Tangerine Dream. What is there to say about this album? Nothing short of a masterpiece. In terms of composition, it could very well sit alongside works by Philip Glass or Terry Riley. Tangerine Dream - Rubycon. This one pictures Tangerine Dream shifting towards a less ambient, more Berlin School-esque direction, and although Phaedra is my fave from them, I seem to like that sequencer-dominated type of sound a bit more. Art Zoyd - Musique Pour L'Odyssee. This was, I think, my second encounter with this one and quite a revelation to me, in a sense that I had remembered it much differently. In reality, it was not as dark, ominous, Univers Zero-like as I had remembered it to be. |

Interesting. I liked this one especially because it did not have that digital sound. Everything sounded extremely organic, glassy, smooth, spacious, yet quite "analog", if you will. And the compositions were also smooth as heck. Never overwhelming, never underwhelming. It was close to... Perfect? |

Yeah, this album is really good, I love it. It's a pity he never made any other albums like this. His album Early Water (with Manuel Gottsching) is okay but very unfocused. And his later albums and soundtracks have a very eighties digital sound.

That Locanda Delle Fate album is just one I can barely get through, Tom, I'm so sick of it after about the third track. It's too damn pretty and swooning - ALL THE TIME!
![]() I think I could name dozens of Italian discs I'd place ahead of it. How did you go with Greg Walker's latest update, mate? Any titles got your interest? If you don't already have it, there's a cool Italian disc called `MO.DO - LA SCIMMIA SULLA SCHIENA DEL RE' on the LP section available, I'd highly recommend that one! Also, there's a modern Zeuhl album called `RHÙN - FANFARE DU CHAOS (WHITE VINYL) (HAND-NUMBERED EDITION OF 300) (SOLEIL ZEUHL) $30' that you should absolutely snap up. It's a dark one, and quite short, but it delivers the goods. I remember Sagi and I both overdosing on it when it came out a few years back. I also recall a friend listening to it and she said `Man, I get such a bad feeling from that album, it really digs at your skin'! ![]() ![]() |

Didn't like `Temple of Doom'?!
Heh, a lot of people would replace that with `Kingdom of the Crystal Skull', but even that isn't nearly as bad as a lot of people seem to think! ![]() |
