Tangerine Dream – Revolution of Sound (Margarete Kreuzer, 2017) I guess there’s always been a contradiction at the heart of appreciating bands which go through multiple line ups. I don’t hold to the school of thought that Pink Floyd stopped when Syd left — but I think I prefer a Yes with a Jon Anderson […]

The Art of the State: 2020 Exhibitions Part Two
I got my money’s worth out of my Art Fund card, just about, and Tate membership and the RAA card make life a little easier, but you need to be fast to catch the members’ previews. I have a suspicion that my listing below is a little inaccurate for February — for example, and I […]

The Old Tracks
The last thing I wanted to see, when I pulled the map out of my shoulder bag, was OS Outdoor Leisure 36 for South Pembrokeshire. It isn’t up to date by twenty years. And more to the point, I am in Kent. Well, I guess there are worse things to see. I just can’t think […]

Tangerine Dream: Zeitraffer (Barbican Music Library, 16 January-2 May 2020) Trevor Paglen: From ‘Apple’ to ‘Anomaly’ (The Curve, Barbican, 26 Sep 2019—Sun 16 Feb 2020) So, the Barbican – aka the alcohol-free concert hall – was heaving and so the slightly complicated but with good sight lines for a rendezvous foyer turned out not to […]
Exhibitions for Expotitions (By Closing Date — Updated 17 February 2020)
I used to maintain a list of exhibitions, because I kept missing stuff. I recreated this when it badly went out of date, and obviously this took time. Then Covid struck and goodness knows what is still on and what has been cancelled. At some point I will start updating again, but stuff has closed, […]
Meh Fetishism
Seeing three exhibitions in one day was a mistake, but two were about to end and the third was next door to the first so I booked slots for Their Mortal Remains and Into the Unknown and shouted at the Science Museum website for not having the complete list of tickets. I allowed about two […]
Hallucinating Freedom Calls
So, along with the Saturdays searching through Good Vibrations or Rob’s Record Mart for copies of albums by Tangerine Dream or Edgar Froese or Peter Baumann or Yes there was a band called Gong. I might have been recommended them by my big bother, I might have just stumbled across them. I bought Camembert Electrique with […]
Upon this Key, Time Will Slide
I don’t recall how it was I first got into Tangerine Dream in the early 1980s. With Neil and Paul I shared an interest of making music although I was always on the production side. I don’t recall whether we got into Tangerine Dream because Neil had a keyboard or whether Neil got a keyboard […]
