Tangerine Dream
Recurring Dreams
NEWLY REWORKED SELECTED CLASSICS BY THE 2020 LINEUP OF THE LEGENDARY PIONEERS OF ELECTRONICA AND AMBIENT
Including "Phaedra", "Stratosfear", "Tangram" and "Yellowstone Park"
Tangerine Dream have been a fundamental influence on electronic music since Edgar Froese founded the band in West
Berlin, 1967. Providing the groundwork for multiple electronic music genres including ambient and electronica, inspiring
musicians and other art forms, from The Future Sound of London to Porcupine Tree, the widely popular TV show Stranger
Things (for which their music also featured in) to seminal video game Grand Theft Auto V (for which they helped to write
the soundtrack). The group have also received seven Grammy nominations, written over 100 studio albums and were led by
Froese, who developed an instantly recognisable synth-based instrumental music based on a meditative musical experience
that came to prominence in the 70s and 80s. Fast-forward to the present day, when popular culture is rediscovering
synthesizers and sequencers, and Tangerine Dream are in the mix of an exciting time for an evolving electronic music
scene.
Modern Tangerine Dream has seen the beginning of 'The Quantum Years', which began as a concept and series of musical
sketches by Froese before he passed away in 2015. Remaining band members Thorsten Quaeschning, Ulrich Schnauss and
Hoshiko Yamane worked together to realize Edgar's visions and expectations of a conceptual body of work that attempts to
translate quantum philosophy into music. The new direction led to the 2017 album Quantum Gate, which was described by
The Guardian as their "most interesting release in years."
With Recurring Dreams, the new generation of Tangerine Dream pay homage to the band's timeless beginnings with
captivating and emotional renditions of selected classics, such as "Phaedra", "Stratosfear", "Tangram" and "Yellowstone
Park". These new recordings are not just re-recorded covers but heartfelt and individual interpretations, featuring all
generations of synths and sequencers, added layers and new arrangements, applying Froese's new quantum dream to these
highly influential tracks. Recurring Dreams also includes the new version of "Claymore Mine Stalking" that was used in
the popular 2018 black metal movie Lords of Chaos.
