Nipponjin (1975)

Tenkujin (1977)
Japanese group. Musician who is currently known as Kitaro was a member of Far East Family Band during the recording of Nipponjin and Parallel World. These albums from 1975 are produced by Klaus Schulze, whose influence is very noticeable on these works. It's great cosmic Progressive Rock with pure synth moments. Sometimes they sing (either in English or in Japanese), but the singing doesn't detract from the music which flows beautifully among sparkling clusters of synths. A classic! The band 'Far Out' was a predecessor to Far East Family Band but I included it here, because it consisted mainly of the same people, although the music on Far Out is much more Rock-oriented.

Cosmos 2043 (1977)
While most library albums of the 1970's and 1980's were at best hit and miss with the cheese factor, Bernard Fevre's short sketches sound surprisingly mature and competent. As a result, they have dated pretty well and sound fresh even by today's standards. Most of the tracks make use of analog synths, clavinets and vintage drum machines. Bernard Fevre is also known for his electronic disco project "Black Devil" (also surpsisingly listenable and fresh-sounding). If you wish to check out some vintage library electronics, I suggest that you check out these albums in particular.

Deep Visions (2005)
Circular Music (2007)
Floating Mind is the project of Swiss artist Roberto Vitali. Deep Visions consists of ambient floaters plus a couple of puzzling computer-voice tracks. Circular Music, however, more than lives up to its title. What we get here is basically a set of extremely repetitive tracks that all share a manic affection for the endless circulation of sounds and melodies. Most of the tracks are also quite minimal, sparse and have some sort of electronic rhythm. Many pieces are drenched in glitchy effects, like clicks, pops and so on. I can easily detect the influence of the IDM genre here. In fact, I am not sure this album will appeal to most fans of Progressive EM, while some adventurous IDM listeners might find it interesting. The mood is generally rather depressive or neutral, robotic and cold. Some compositions exhibit an infectious and hypnotizing nature, like "Cobra", for instance. Others portray no emotions at all and are just a bunch of electronic drum sounds thrown together ("Psydela"). Still others have no melody and only consist of rhythms, subtle bass lines and strange effects ("Nightmare City", "Searching Roots"). This is an album only for the adventurous listener and for those who want to hear something non-standard.

Head Room (1978)
Late 1970's - early 1980's Canadian outfit that started as a Progressive Rock collective but later turned into a generic AOR / New Wave band. The above albums should be of interest to EM fans. They feature a mix of instrumental tracks / sections (some electronic stuff too) and nice vocals. Later albums (post-1979) are in Pop / New Wave vein. FM consisted of Cameron Hawkins (vocals, synthesizer, bass, piano), Martin Deller (drums, percussion, synthesizer), Nash the Slash (electric mandolin, violin, glockenspiel, vocals, effects) and Ben Mink (replacing Nash the Slash in 1978). So, as you see, no guitar here. The second album is also known as "Direct To Disc".

Spheres (2003) (recorded in 1984 - 1989)
German synth band formed in Munich in 1979 and the original line-up was Thomas Geldhauser (organ, synth), Werner Kolb (synth) and Georg Reiter (synth). I think somewhere in the early 80's Serge Douw was also a fourth member for a little while. After that the group reformed several times and always with new members coming and going. It is now comprised of Georg Reiter (the original member), Christian Feher and Lothar Lubitz. If you are looking for quality Electronic Music in the best traditions of the genre - this is it. In spite of being melodic, the music doesn't get schmaltzy or saccharine. And their melodies are simply charming and hypnotic, once you've heard the music, you will want to hear it again and again. In my opinion, one of the best Berlin School bands around, Foreign Spaces easily gets my thumbs up! I can see why Eroc put a lot of effort into these guys. Ok, some of their themes are said to be a bit underdeveloped, but what I've heard so far just kicked ass. A space traveller's delight! Highly recommended. Imagination - Pictures - Music was remastered by Eroc in 2001 and contains music recorded in 1989. Spheres contains even older material mainly from early-to-mid 80's.
The 3rd Winter (1997)
This band started as an Ambient outfit, releasing this demo with two long, repetitive keyboard tracks (with a few whispers and deeply buried growls). Their second demo, called Winter Circle, was in the same style but had more prominent vocals added. Still, if you like The 3rd Winter and don't mind some typical Black Metal hoarse vocals, give Winter Circle s try. After that they went for the atmospheric Black Metal sound. The guy behind Forest Silence has also released a short cassette in 1999 under "Arud" moniker (called The Saturnus Mission). The music is in a similar style.
Synchronicite (2002)
This album contains very melancholic synth compositions, sometimes with a Patrick O'Hearn feel. However, it is pretty atypical of his usual output, as Patrick Forgas is mostly known as a multi-instrumentalist / Jazz musician with a Canterbury-tinged sound. His previous works include Cocktail (1977), L'Oleil (1990) and Art d'Echo (1992).

British synthesist Robert Fox (born in 1950 in Newcastle under Lyme) is quite well-known in the EM circles. He started his career doing theatre soundtracks, using the latest synthesizer technology (that was in the 1980's). Robert then went on to record solo works, many of them released on CD. He creates very melodic music, sometimes rhythmic, sometimes a bit more 'out-there' (A Gathering of Spirits). Recommended if melody is your thing.

Interesting band from Ohio, consisting of Jeff Hatfield (synthesizer) and Zach Troxell (synthesizer). Although they often get lumped together with Noise acts, their music is nothing like Noise. Instead, it's flowing and meditative and consists of drawn-out organ tones and twittering effects. Will be enjoyed by fans of Drone Ambient and early Klaus Schulze.
Mexxico (1996) (recorded in 1993 - 1996)

The Calling (2000)
Member of Tangerine Dream from 1971 to 1988 and the driving force behind the group's sound during all these years, Franke is one of the most influential figures in the history of Electronic Music. He was drumming for Agitation Free when Edgar Froese suggested that he should join his band. Schulze and Schnitzler had both left the group and Franke took the vacant place in the organism known as Tangerine Dream. Froese and Franke were joined by Steve Schroyder and recorded Alpha Centauri, the first Electronic Space album in history. After that the group saw many changes in its line-up, but the duo of Froese and Franke always propelled the Tangerine Dream sound to the future. Franke contributed a lot to the group's music and that was crucial for the famous Tangerine Dream sound on all classic records done by the group. That's why his departure in 1988 is seen as an irreparable loss by many a fan. Thanks to Franke, or 'Mister Sequencer', as he was called, the Berlin School sound took shape and developed. Unfortunately, after he left the group, the music of Tangerine Dream was never the same again. It is enough to listen to 'Vermillion Sands' from The London Concert to see what exactly TD lost with the departure of Chris. Now Franke lives in the USA and has written lots of Hollywood movie soundtracks, that just don't make full use of this man's talent. They are simply orchestral music with maybe occasional echoes of his electronic sound. Moreover, many of Franke's recent music is simply boring New Age for a wider market. And that is just regrettable. I wish he could wipe the dust off his sequencers and Moogs and show some young amateurs, who try to emulate his classic sound now, how it's really done. Chris, I hope you are reading this (wink!). Pacific Coast Highway, The London Concert and Klemania are recommended. If you're a fan, though, you would want all of them, that's for sure, even the endless 'Babylon 5' series.

Fripp is of course the legendary King Crimson guitarist, the man who invented the 'Frippertronics', a system of guitar processing devices that lets him coax totally freaked out sounds outta his guitar. Robert Fripp is one of the most important innovators in the field of guitar playing. For EM fans I'd recommend A Blessing of Tears and That Which Passes. These are very cosmic works where it is sometimes hard to believe that everything was achieved via guitar. File under Manuel Goettsching, Jeff Pearce, Richard Pinhas etc. Fripp has a ton of releases and the above discography is far from complete.

Eloy Fritsch is the keyboard player for the Progressive Rock group Apocalypse and as a solo artist he creates cosmic Electronic Music. Atmosphere can be easily considered a classic of contemporary EM. The music is sweeping, grand, and at times orchestral. It moves from clear melodic themes that are somewhat earthly (in the good sense, that is - and there's no wonder - in the first part of album Fritsch paints pictures of the lower layers of our atmosphere) to the more experimental out-there stuff in the middle of the album, only to return back to anthemic epicness by the end. This is, indeed, celestial music that moves slowly and at times seems to go completely out of control (during the more experimental moments) and at other times sounds totally composed (during the more melodic passages). The closest comparison would be probably Vangelis. Not recent stuff, but more vintage period when he used lots of analogue instruments. Nevertheless, Fritsch has found his own style within melodic Electronic Music framework. I think that every EM fan should listen to at least one of his albums. It's a pity that so many listeners want to hear just bland copies of their favourite musicians and somewhat ignore unique talent and music.

Edgar Froese is 1). Tangerine Dream frontman, 2). One of the most important names in the history of Electronic Music 3). Simply a great musician, whatever they may tell you. I won't analyse the music he's done with Tangerine Dream here, but I will concentrate on his solo stuff instead. I will start by saying that no Electronic Music collection should do without at least one of his albums (I'm talking the vintage stuff here, of course). These timeless classics are as good as the vintage TD stuff and if you've heard the music of this band (sure you have, haven't you?) you already know what to expect. Sometimes dark and brooding, sometimes sequential and energetic, sometimes quite haunting with tons of Mellotron sounds, these works are classics of the Berlin School sound and a must for any fan of that genre (or any fan of Electronic Music to start with). Beyond the Storm is a collection of reworked older tracks plus a lot of new compositions. There are many facets to Froese's music and you should simply listen to it to appreciate the talent and imagination (a crucial feature for an electronic musician) of this man. I'm probably repeating myself here but this is simply a must! In 2005, Froese started to re-release his back catalogue, using the method of re-recording older classics (the process also known as "tangentizing"), adding new sounds and layers along the way. These releases should be avoided.

Born on Novermber 24, 1970, Jerome Froese is the son of Edgar Froese and is a musician of Tangerine Dream fame. Starting from the 1990's he began his solo career, releasing some singles under the TDJ Rome pseudonym. These were very much Techno-influenced and demonstrated his rhythmic side. However, the albums released under is own name show us a more introspective Jerome. While still being influenced by the Dream Mixes sound, they offer more sedate and atmospheric, melodic tracks that fuse Electronic Music with elements of Shoegaze, IDM, Ambient and slight Techno influences. Nightshade Family is a live album.

Peter Frohmader is one of the legends of Electronic Music and Krautrock. He creates mystical, sometimes dark music which is quite unique and not comparable to other artists. Some of his early material is characterized by a huge bass presence that likens his music to that of Magma and King Crimson, with a dark, aggressive electronic edge. During the 70's Frohmader was part of several groups, including Alpha Centauri, Electronic Delusion and Kanaan. In the late 70's he formed the project "Nekropolis" that became an outlet for his own experiments in the realms of radical Rock and Electronic Music.

Dave then went on to refine his style and to include influences as diverse as Minimalism and the Berlin School, always retaining that raw, experimental edge. Dave Fuglewicz has collaborated with Hal McGee, among others. His music will mostly appeal to fans of Experimental EM.

However, I know for sure that some of his works (not listed) are in pure New Age / meditation or vocal mould. Be warned.
