‘Tangerine Dream is science fiction!’ declares band leader Edgar Froese who died in January, 2015 aged 70. For almost fifty years he and his band ‘Tangerine Dream’ explored sound and its effect on our emotions. This film about one of Germany’s first electronic bands kicks off with the young Berlin musicians who were as inspired by the space age of the 1960s, with its rocket launchings and visions of the future, as they were by their own heartbeat, on which Froese also based compositions. Aided by the Moog and other synthesisers Froese (and various band members) revolutionised popular music. His explorations took him into the worlds of classical, new and film music. He preferred to visualise moods rather than create clearly structured songs. A blend of amateur footage, interviews with band members, relatives, friends and colleagues such as Jean-Michel Jarre that creates a comprehensive portrait of an artistic pioneer.

The London Eye Concert‘ was recorded during Tangerine Dream‘s live concert at the Forum at London-Kentishtown on 1st November 2008. London‘s and TD‘s soundscapes are so unique like a score to a movie. The British influence in TD‘s music within their 40 years‘ development most people may have recognised. For those who couldn‘t join the concert or like to relive it again: Here‘s the full cut of their beat show on Blue Ray at the Forum in Kentishtown. A kaleidoscope beginning with the new title ”Trauma“ (Autumn In Hiroshima) and ending with the breathtaking live interpretation of the TD classic ”Cloudburst Flight“. Enjoy a great concert on Blu Ray - nearly 3 hours with a very fresh mastering.
