Cyclone (Audio CD)

Customer Review

After Peter Baumann had left the Berlin electronic band Tangerine Dream, the remaining sound pioneers Edgar Froese and Chris Franke shocked a lot of their fans with the 1978 published by Virgin album "Cyclone".
We strengthened many also brought vocals with drummer Klaus Krieger and multi-instrumentalist Steve Joliffe, which enriched the usual synthetic electronic sounds of the band not only with inter alia woodwinds, but the terror.
From the violence of the rejection of the band was then surprised and vocals were then the great exception.
I like them well; Joliffes vocal sounds simple oblique, worn, it is a matter of taste.
The mix of floating keyboard sounds, vocoder, sequencer, guitar, violin, flute and so on and the wrong song I liked always;
Today the album is absolute cult for me.
"Cyclone" has three Stücke.Das third contains no vocals and therefore sounds like what the TD handset that time expected from the band.
The downright dogmatic seeming rejection of vocals surprises me today, had TD already so brought out at this time some demanding washers and correspondingly with an open-minded audience to do.The vocals blend perfectly fit into the music, I mean ... .Oh well.

Recording quality and sound of the vinyl record are quite OK.
The CD released later in 1995 replaced by a remastered edition.
The remastering was done very convincingly by Simon Heyworth (Chop Em Out).
Heyworth circumcised the dynamism hardly (mean values) and put "Super Bit Mapping" (SBM) of a Sony.
The sound of people out of the recording hardly more.
