[@moduslive]

mine too, Vangelis music like alpha and the chariots of fire theme is chillingly beautiful, and matt berry's witchhazle album and the snuff box themes he wrote are amazing - the 60s acid rock and folk vibe and 70s funk and soul vibe running throughout make it so inventive and original... some of his songs sound like they are authentic forgotten never before played pieces from the past.

[@AliceBowie]

Vangelis was awesome. He also did the soundtrack for Blade Runner. His band Aphrodite's Child was psych rock, so awesome black metal bands cover it. Tangerine Dream is similar, and also great. The leading horse is white The second horse is red The third one is a black The last one is a green
