Hear our tribute to Edgar Froese tonight on Echoes. I first heard Tangerine Dream in 1974. It was the album Phaedra, and it was unlike anything I had ever heard before: no vocals, no songs, rhythms that throbbed like galactic rubber bands, textures that swirled, and sounds that were completely unfamiliar.

Kapt. Kopter Reborn
Some of you may remember the album, Kapt. Kopter and the (Fabulous) Twirly Birds by Randy California, the guitarist from the underrated psychedelic band Spirit. Well, somebody must’ve really liked the cover of that album, because they replicated it for a forthcoming DJ Harvey album called Wildest Dreams. If you hear the album, you’ll know…
