Performer: Tangerine Dream
Distributor: E1 Distribution (USA) Notes: Originally part of a fan-based live bootleg project called Bootmoon, this recording of the pioneering and influential German electronic outfit Tangerine Dream is part of a series of unadorned live performances (the band habitually added post-production instrumentation and otherwise altered its sound on its official live releases). Done in Sydney in 1982 (tracks such as the brooding "Ayers Majestic" are nods to notable Australian locations), this double-CD album documents the group at a fascinating point in its evolution, when fully structured compositions, such as the stately "Logos (Part One)," were steadily replacing its original loose, free-form improvisations.
An inspiration to subsequent generations of electronic artists, Tangerine Dream pioneered the ambient use of synthesizers in a rock format. Part of the German psychedelia ("krautrock") explosion of the late '60s/early '70s, the group mutated over the years to a more rhythmic sound, eventually providing soundtrack music for many films.
