FORTHCOMING ALBUM PRECURSOR FROM TANGERINE DREAM FEATURING ORIGINAL STUDIO RECORDINGS AND REMIXES AVAILABLE THIS NOVEMBER Tangerine Dream have been a fundamental influence on electronic music since Edgar Froese founded the band in West Berlin in 1967. Providing the groundwork for multiple electronic music genres including ambient & electronica, inspiring musicians & other art forms, with seven Grammy nominations to their credit. In recent years their music has featured in popular TV shows such as ‘Stranger Thing’s & video games including ‘Grand Theft Auto’. After Froese passed away in 2015, the remaining band members, Thorsten Quaeschning, Ulrich Schnauss & Hoshiko Yamane carried on helping realise Edgar’s vision for of a conceptual album that attempts to translate quantum physics & philosophy into music, ‘Quantum Gate’ was released to critical acclaim in 2017. With a new line up, Thorsten & Hoshiko have been joined by Berlin based keyboard virtuoso Paul Frick. The trio have spent 2021 in their Berlin studio working on ‘Probe 6-8’, a first glimpse into the forthcoming full Tangerine Dream studio album due for release in early 2022. ‘Probe 6-8’ sees the group’s classic studio productions & late-night real-time compositions form a blueprint for slowly evolving ambient structures, with the band’s sequencer driven sound reminiscent of TD’s early 1970’s work combining with a lush 1980’s crystalline bliss. The trio have composed & produced ‘Probe 6-8’ with full access to Edgar Froese’s Cubase arrangements & Otari Tape Archive with recordings from 1977-2013. The first track ‘Raum’, is a nod to the band’s early live studio performances ‘Zeit’ & ‘Phaedra’, with a distinctive heavy Moog bass marking the beginning & the end of this 15-minute introductory piece. This new set of recordings also feature two remixes - Berlin-based composer & producer Grand River (Aimée Portioli) has given ‘Raum’ her signature sound & ‘Continuum’ was remixed by Berghain resident & Leisure System co-founder Sam Barker. This edition of the release is presented as a CD digi-sleeve. DISC 1 1. Raum (14:55) 2. Para Guy (05:48) 3. Continuum (07:10) 4. Raum (Grand River Remix) (06:17) 5. Continuum (Barker Remix) (05:49)
