This is album has enchanted me almost through the whole history of my “relation” with Tangerine Dream and I am very strong that it will continue to enchant me for the rest of my life.It is one of those albums that leave you speechless and breathless.It is of a monumentality rare to be described,a monumentality that serves very well to the Tangerine Dream renowed class and to 11 magnificent masterliness years of electronic music from them.It is not one of those surprising,”shockers”,albums-given the fact that until now we are already used to glorious live albums (Ricochet-Encore-Logos et caetera),plus on the line of masterfullness it stands quite equal to every other album of the Golden Era.But here corelations really fade or turn into dust.As an album of its own,seen through the individual perception mode,this is magnificent scaled.One of Tangerine Dream’s superb album,one that makes me not more and not less that extremely content and extremely proud.From the perspective of corelation however,we do have some “not so good news” coming:Poland is the last album of the Tangerine Dream Golden Era.After the year 1984,heavy clouds of disorientation,of dismembership,of disillusion,clouds of bad seed,clouds of complete change,start to gather,to form,to spread virus.Yes,we say goodbye to masterliness Tangerine Dream albums with a perfect album,I can say.Yet let’s not necessarily judge the album as a closer to great things.Let’s judge in the posivite light of grandness,of pleasure listening,of soundscape and of spirit.

It stands as very-well outlined and elevated music.Tangerine Dream do here what they have projected,then acomplished so well,in the previous live albums:more than a show,more than just electronic music…movement music,musique grande,musique de lumiere…Within these four pieces,they put every resources and every manifest of magic they have,plus the eternal element of soul and passion,and create wonders.Truly wonders.This is music of quality I am afraid even to describe.”Platinum” writen all over it.An amount of aspects done perfectly and a special sort of details done even better than perfect.”Better than perfect”!.How great that feeling must be!Strong structure and cultivated,rafined and clear composition.The pieces are work of art in the full meaning of the word.Emotions also cross boundaries unknows.This is fresh breeze concerning a relation with Hyperborea;not really connected.Poland is a full album,a creation of its own.Of course,the style is undoubtebly well-fixed into the Schmoelling era,with light maneuvers of expression,with themes evolving to extremes separately,with the air of surroundness,with the sonority of the entire 1980-1984 period.And elements can easily be found in many other albums like these.But the “new” factor is well alive and,my God,so marking.Manner of approach and tehniques are very different from one piece to another.The title track is one open,tehnic even,more into the light of electronics,into the light of rhythms.”Tangent” follows the path of “Poland”,yet towards a more soundscaping feature,inclined more to estetic and luminous,towards a different sort of effect.Made in touch with themed corelations.”Barbakane” is a monography of spirit and desire.A striking message of how the pulse moves onward and only onward.Even a monography of a side of life,seen through the prisma of 20 minutes.While “Horizon” is a mass work of dark,ambiguous and diffuze matter.You can even consider “Horizon” the dedication towards what it was.Towards years of experiments and years of effect-seeking;with the drop of contemporarity,of course.The ending on “Horizon” is absolutely delicious;frenetic and electric.The emotions can very also.Through “Poland”,Tangerine Dreams show their enormous talent to move the spirit,to lift it up.Up into the high planes of divine pleasure.

I strongly recommend this album.It is one that for the fans of Tangerine Dream will be absolutely fantastic.As for those who just like the meddlings of Tangerine Dream,it will be of no sort dissapointing.Poland – a passionate expression of lifeless music.
