Mr Tangerine Dream has changed his cosmic address

"On January 20th, Tuesday afternoon, Edgar Froese suddenly and unexpectedly passed away from the effects of a pulmonary embolism in Vienna"

Great loss for the Electronic Music

I discovered Tangerine Dreams almost 40 years ago and they still are one of my favourite bands

RIP

I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...

Yeh, early Tangerine Dream albums and Edgar Froese solo works as well were golden fund of European and world advanced electronic music

So sad to read. I know he was up there in age but I didn't expect it.

RIP
