Found this review, which sums it up very good:Analog-X wrote:Is it good??Chris Abbott wrote:Least surprising music choice evertangdream wrote:Tangerine Dream - Zeit
"This music is huge, and it is music that is about size, space, silence, very gradual change, large-ness, distance. I think it would either bore most people crazy, that or scare them. But, to me, this is why music exists, why music is an art form and not just entertainment. It takes some basic musical ideas (space, rate of change, etc...) and runs with them, and most importantly uses them in an extreme fashion, creating an epic, a work of art. It seems that the goal was to create music to depict the size of the planets, and the vastness of space. I believe they have achieved this. They use oscillators, string instruments, organ, Moog keyboards. This is something that is hard to listen to regularly due to the length of the 4 sections (20 minutes each), and admittedly, I don't listen to it very often. But it is hard not to be awed by this music that one time of the year I do play it through. It is bigger than the room, and bigger than me. All you can do is look up at it and marvel at its size."

The Plaudits - Having Yourself On
(For our foreign readers, "to have yourself on" is an English expression meaning to fool yourself. For example, to pretend your terrible Internet radio station has millions of listeners and is the best in the world, when it quite clearly isn't )
