Airbag - Identity

Only just discovered this band & you guys should check them out. A fantastic album. Norwegian band Airbag create a uniquely Scandinavian fusion of contemporary Progressive Rock edge, Art Pop emotionalism and Post Rock atmospherics.

Taking inspiration from the likes of Porcupine Tree, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Talk Talk, Coldplay and No-Man, the band's debut release, Identity, combines cinematic soundscapes, epic guitar grandeur and sweetly soulful melodies to produce an astonishingly assured first statement.

“Prog at its most chilled, honeyed and soothing.” - Classic Rock

Today I wanted to listen to something with a bit more 'texture', and so I've settled on the Kundun soundtrack by Philip Glass - very highly recommended, the last track (Escape To India) especially is (I think) one of the finest pieces he's ever written.

Tonight, some Sequentia. Their interpretations of Hildegard von Bingen's Canticles of Ecstasy is the best I've heard, and always lifts me up

Right at this moment - Tangerine Dream "Livemiles"

Excellent choice, I must give that a listen - I'm on the look out for the OST of the film Dune I think it was entirely TD.

Hi John,

It wasn't TD, although Klaus Schulze released an excellent album of the same name in 1979, but this was not in anyway connected to the actual film, with the exception of the cover to said album which is actually a scene from the film.

The actual score to the movie Dune was I believe recorded by Toto.

It's available on amazon:

and at a good price...

Hi John, I really used to enjoy that album back in the day when I had the David Lynch Dune original soundtrack on vinyl, the American rock group Toto together with a European orchestra were the main elements at play, and a specially composed track by Brian Eno featured - (I'm trying to recall) - in the scene where the giant Guild Heighliner cargo Starship travels through warp space. I think you are seeking the Klaus Schulze 1979 album Dune which was inspired by the Frank Herbert Novel.
