original analogue master tapes.Įdited in DSD by Manabu Matsumura at Universal Music Studios, Tokyo, in 2015. At The Border Of The Marsh From OkefenokeeĭSD flat transferred from U.K. Check the faraway harmonica sounds and assortment of synth-bubbles on “3 AM at the Border of the Marsh From Okefenokee” or the somber chords and choral presence of “The Big Sleep in Search of Hades.” The title track opener is the highlight though, beginning with a statuesque synthesizer progression before unveiling an increasingly hypnotic line of trance.Ġ3. Stratosfear is also the beginning of a more evocative approach for Tangerine Dream. The organic instruments take more of a textural role, embellishing the effects instead of working their own melodic conventions. The album accomplishes its mission with the addition of guitar (six- and 12-string), grand piano, harpsichord, and mouth organ to the usual battery of moogs, Mellotrons, and e-pianos. Surprisingly the band used acoustic instruments like harpsichord, acoustic guitars, grand piano and mouth organ but also a new Project electronic rhythm computer played by Peter Baumann. Stratosfear, the last Tangerine Dream album by the great Baumann/Franke/Froese threesome, shows the group’s desire to advance past their stellar recent material and stake out a new musical direction while others were still attempting to come to grips with Phaedra and Rubycon. Stratosfear marks the beginning of the development away from their sequencer-driven sound toward a more melodic one.
