Graham, you just pipped me to posting that, you must have 'folded space' to do so!

Hi Graham, ah yes I can see that now (I've just been reading your introduction), Schulze's Dune seems (to me at least) to have had something of a mythical status back at some point, its not an album I've ever heard though, cheers I've been inspired to check it out and I'm listening to it right now, just right for this time of night:

The first track at half an hour is IMHO awesome. I love the mix of cello with Klaus's synths. The second track contains the vocals of Arthur Brown which many people at the time weren't too fond of, although the music is still of a very high standard.

On the re-release by SPV in 2005 there's a bonus track called "Le Mans" which is a live performance from around 1979 where Klaus actually attempts (quite successfully) to imitate the sound of a racing car with his synths.

The other thing I noted when I first heard this album on CD (with the exception of the bonus live track) is that the mastering/sound quality is amazing.

Might just give it a spin myself tonight.

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, 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.

Ah my bad, Schulze yes - maybe I was thinking of Flashpoint OST.

Got home from work this evening after being subjected to (against my will) over 7 hours of Radio 1... cry

As they say here in Scotland my head was nipping... sick

Immediately put on John Foxx "Tiny Colour Movies"

Worked quickly and was better than taking 2 paracetamol... wink

Brilliant album !!

I've been listening to one of my favourite electronic/metatronic albums. 'Arbor Bona/Arbor Mala' by The Shamen. The only track I can find on You Tube is 'Xochipili's Return'.. So here it is. Best listened to when you are the only one awake in your household at night. Anyone know what happened to Colin Angus?
