Tangerine Dream

Tangerine Dream is a German music collective formed in 1967, one of the pioneers of electronic music and krautrock. The group's lineup changed often, while Froese remained its only permanent member. In the early period of the group's existence, it included drummer and composer Klaus Schulze. The most stable lineup was formed later, in the beginning of the 70s, when the collective consisted of Froese, Christopher Franke, and Peter Baumann. In 2002, two Tangerine Dream albums, Phaedra and Rubycon, were included in the rating of The 25 Most Influential Ambient Albums of All Time (25 main ambient albums of all time). 20 January 2015, the leader of Tangerine Dream, Edgar Froese, passed away from a pulmonary embolism.
