Oh yes, mainly their older stuff though like Ricochet, Phaedra, Tangram, etc etc. Also into ex-member Klaus Schulze too. More into people like Steve Roach, Lustmord, Biosphere now although I'm still partial to a bit of Ashra every now and then.

Iv'e got asome tracks about the place - more of a kraftwerk fan, but TD are great too - proper mad synth music. Klauss is a genius...

Well thats one. Did you ever hear about the missing music they composed for SH? Enough to fill 2-3 albums but Universal holds the rights and they aint releasing it, BDS!

Electronic Sorcerers
Reflex magazine Volume 1, Issue 9 by Rich Shupe

"...It was even worse when we did Streethawk. It was a nightmare. The problem was that we had to deliver a new sequence within five days and sometimes they were asking for a seqence of 50 or 55 minutes of music each time! So we were working sometimes 14 or 16 hours a day"

"To this day I don't know what Universal is doing with all those masses of music," simmers Froese "We are not allowed to release even a single out of the Streethawk music. They didn't even want to do the one single we put on Le Parc. That involved a long negotiation between lawyers and ourselves and we had to change the title on that song and so forth. They could release five LPs of that stuff. We wouldn't want to release all of the material in album form, but we could put together an LP of the best sequences. We know there is brilliant music there which has never been released. A lot of chasing music. I remember we did some experimental stuff with new ways of getting sequences together...."

I've got Le Parc on CD

Can sort of play the Streethawk theme on the Keyboard.

Also got some Kraftwerk stuff, "The Mix" and "Radioactivity"

I'm another. Went to see them at the Astoria earlier this year, really enjoyed it, the re-worked version of Sphinx Lightning was excellent and it was good to see new arrangements of other pieces to give Linda a bit more to do than just some irritating saxophone.

Ricochet part II is my favourite piece of music, not just by them. Shame the Moogs and 'trons are all in Edgar's studio and will never come out again .

Been a big fan of them ever since StreetHawk & Risky Business, kinda went off them after 1987 when Chris Franke left as they went a bit muzak n cheesy although occasionally Edgar still makes something worth listening to.

I stopped buying the albums after Melrose and whatever followed it (so memorable I've forgotten the title), but have started going to the gigs again in the last few years and they have not disappointed. Edgar has a pretty shrewd idea what people turn up hoping to hear.

Nowadays I get my electronica from Redshift. Siren and Ether live in the car.
