This Clamshell Box of TD’s ‘Pink Years’ features: ‘Electronic Meditation’, ‘Alpha Centauri’, ‘Zeit’ and ‘Atem’, all of which were originally released on the Ohr label in Germany between 1970 and 1973!
All of the audio for this Boxed Set has been NEWLY REMASTERED in 2018 by Ben Wiseman.

Disc 1 - ‘Electronic Meditation’ was recorded in Berlin in October 1969 and featured the first TANGERINE DREAM line-up of Edgar Froese (guitars / organ / tapes / sound effects), Klaus Schulze (drums / percussion) and Conrad Schnitzler (cello / violin / typewriter). Upon its release in 1970 the album would define a genre of music and herald the massive creative musical explosion that would emerge in Germany in the early 1970’s.

Disc 2 – ‘Alpha Centauri’ was recorded at the Dierks studio in Stommeln and featured a line-up of Edgar Froese, Chris Franke and Steve Schroyder with guests Udo Dennebourg (flute) and Roland Pualyck (synthesiser). Released in 1971, the influence of this album was immense, with the band creating imaginative soundscapes previously unheard on record.

Disc 3 – ‘Zeit’ was released in August 1972 as a Double LP, with one lengthy track per side. This album was also recorded at the Dierks studio and featured a guest appearance by Florian Fricke of another legendary ambient German group: POPOL VUH. One of TANGERINE DREAM’s finest early albums, ‘Zeit’ was enthusiastically championed in the UK by DJ John Peel and was the group’s major breakthrough release.

Disc 4 – ‘Atem’ was released in 1973 and was the band’s last release on the Ohr label and heralded the beginning of TANGERINE DREAM’s wider international acclaim. ‘Atem’ enjoyed success outside of Germany and eventually led to the group signing to the newly formed Virgin label later in 1973.

‘Pink Years’ is released on 28th September 2018.
