Tangerine Dream TV clip 1975

Tangerine Dream TV clip. Maybe between 1975 and 76?
I can't be more precise about what TV and what year.
If you have more info about and want to share, you are welcome to post it :)

Didn't know anything about Tangerine Dream until as a young 17 old travelling through France in the summer of 1975, my brother, a friend and I had the opportunity to go to Orange '75 for one of the nights of what was termed France's Woodstock and I was totally blown away by their amazing soundscapes. What a performance!

Watching these pictures 45 years after is simply incredible ! Thank you for the share

Many of my favorite bands show their influences very openly, but not TD. They don't really remind me of anybody that came before them, and that makes them so exciting to listen to, especially if it is something you are hearing for the first time. You just don't know what to expect.

[@CannibalWHORE22]

That’s a good point. There was never a before Tangerine Dream it always been after

[@patricioramirezcarmona8302]

Efectivamente Bee Kay, eso demuestra lo geniales que eran, pues no tuvieron en quien inspirarse para realizar sus obras. Incluso, fueron ellos en cierta medida, los creadores de la llamada Escuela de Música Electrónica de Berlín, junto a Klaus Schulze ( R.I.P. ), y otros exponentes en ese entonces. Cada obra de Tangerine Dream en aquellos primeros años, fueron únicas, pura creatividad, originales. Ahora, mirando este documento histórico, pienso, lo difícil que era armar todo ese enjambre de teclados, sintetizadores, conectores, que solo ellos sabían donde iba cada uno, para sacar los sonidos que conocemos hasta hoy. Espectacular nada mas, para mí...genios. Saludos a toda la comunidad admiradora de este genial trío que yo llamo "Mensajeros Cósmicos".

I know Edgar loved Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd which explains his guitar style and Chris was the one that introduced Edgar to John Cage and Stockhausen but the rest I think was musically developed over time. Just three guys making sounds work.

[@moggadah]

Somehow I feel there was a depth to music, art and even thinking in the 70-80s. To me it seems this depth has faded away. All the impressions of today seems to make things less well thought, less emotional, less intelligent. Instead we consume and become agressive. Don't we yearn for something...deeper?

Amen

INA website says this next to this clip.---On the occasion of the passage of the group TANGERINE DREAM to the Alhambra of Bordeaux, extract of a concert of the group interpreting "Ricochet - Part two" First broadcast Date:Friday 19/09/1975

[@soloharmonicsrobj8246]

The best thing about TD is they improvised a lot in their older live performances. I can listen to them for hours.

[@michaelgranaldi8109]

Up until Stratosfear, all their albums were improvised too. Just spliced the good parts together.

[@HomerNarr]

Well they had no choice. The modular synths you see here could not load presets. They had to patch (rewire) the connections and turn knobs into certain positions for every song. I noted that in the 80s they started to use an Atari ST. I belive at that time i was able to hear the difference, since some pieces sounded very artificial due to the lack if quantising.

[@michaelgranaldi8109]

@@HomerNarr i always felt the lack of quantizing made it sound more raw and natural.

[@HomerNarr]

@@michaelgranaldi8109 i am not sure we agree on what quantizing means. Unquantized music hits every beat in perfection. Quantizing adds a human factor by adding imperfections. Unquantized sounds robotic. Edit: I learned that Quantizing actually does both: WIth a DAW you can correct timing and make timing errors go away or one can add human feel to a "perfect" rythm that sounds to robotic.

Love it. Huuuge TD fan for more than 40 years now. Saw them already 3 times live. RIP Edgar. Greetings Dirk Belgium ❤

[@johntwohats.1479]

nearly 50 years ago. wowThe chemistry was there.

[@marcdelsert604]

Brotherhood with classical music for this masterpiece... And many others. In memory of Edgar Froese and Klaus Schulze.

[@martinwalters628]

Sounds very much like Ricochet

Yeah, I think so too )

Like watching the gods dancing across the sky. So much genius.

[@synoneiro]

Thinking '75... Edgar had a full beard in '76 footage :)

[@donnieandsarah]

Quite amazing. Right as their rocket ship was taking off.

[@ericwarte266]

Groupe génial, surtout à cette époque de pionniers en musique électronique.

[@crossingrubycon]

Undoubtedly the best lineup together with Froese Franke Schmoelling. The music is great and way ahead of that time. I'm happy that TD are going Back To The Roots again today. But of course that is not comparable to the beginning of the 70s. Nevertheless, I think that Quäschning and Co. make very good music today. Of course that's not a big deal. The times are over.

not often you see Peter Baumann alongside Edgar Froese and Christopher Franke

[@skumsters2323]

Sweet video, thank you!!

[@gumse666]

The future never looked better.

[@BrendanTallyman]

The music has nothing to do with the footage as nobody is actually playing the Fender Rhodes or Elka Rhapsody which are the predominant sounds over the sequencing.

[@ohmtronseedling]

although the Fender Rhodes sound was a Mellotron sample.

[@zorancalic65]

​​@@ohmtronseedling no! Mellotron never had tapes with sounds of rhodes. Simple, there was not need for that.

[@ohmtronseedling]

@@zorancalic65 you are incorrect, friend. Mellotron had hundreds of sounds available. as a former owner of one i had the list of available samples from the Clearwater Florida Mellotron headquarters (in the 80's) but also a friend actually has the Rhodes tapes. there were regular pianos, Rhodes, Wurlitzers, wine glasses, "wings vocals", guitars, plus there were backing rhythms available. let's not even get into custom tapes that Tangerine Dream and/or Klaus Schulze had made. TD made samples of monophonic moogs and arps so chords could be played... Mellotron was definitely more than violins/flutes/choir. i promise you. i agree there was no need for the Rhodes tapes but it doesn't mean it didn't exist.

[@zorancalic65]

@@ohmtronseedling ok, maybe later, as you say, in 80's. But, on 1963... I'm not sure... However, thanks for info

[@fiorfiore7350]

LP RUBYCON....comprato disco nel 1975...sempre bello !!✌✌

[@flamindigo]

This is from the days of the REAL Tangerine Dream - not those modern pretenders.

[@winterland2011]

TD from 1980 to 1988 were still amazing.

[@christophegermain3082]

Jolie petite vidéo

[@user-il4jc5yd6c]

If anyone has heard any of there really old recorded stuff they were just experimenting with sounds but they progressed as they went along not unlike pink Floyd but I find that they are the bigger version of them and also there music is unique against all odds of the electronic music and GN Garry numan kind of sparked it off but no where as good as the one and only TD.😊😊

[@josdurkstraful]

I actually saw this on tv when it was broadcast, I think it was a German series about krautrock.

[@marguskiis7711]

Strange to think one Korg Volca Keys can do the same sounds.

[@thewordofgord]

Similar but not identical to the Coventry Cathedral performance. No I cannot identify, but am grateful for your upload.

[@sebastianosses9252]

que bueno

[@mjcowgill7906]

❤ GENIUS ❤🎉😊😂

[@marsupialmicron]

Muchas gracias por el video, muy bueno!

[@MS-Patriot2]

Pre MIDI. I’m guessing the reel to reel is playing the repeating sequence?

[@martintornero9579]

Sequencers played with control voltage. No need for MIDI there. Tape was probably a drone for background

[@bertenqvist7324]

This is Ricochet out of sync,... In the Root of Rocks 70th episode they appeared with Mike Oldfield, Pink Floyd, Shine on you crazy Diamonds and TD with Rubycon, some of the clips are from this shots.- it was like another planet has arrived into the TV-screene.

[@jimmyboo1877]

Do you have a link to that?

[@rozzgrey801]

Tangs rule OK!

[@raulmontanari4387]

Maybe 1975? Music has a Ricochet flavour; it sounds like a version of Ricochet part 2.

[@marguskiis7711]

Froese smoking???

[@Gr8Believer]

No man's land?

[@michaelgranaldi8109]

No way. Baumann wasn't involved with that

[@Twinthumps]

Genius

[@michaelodwyer4442]

Yes I quite agree with you that this is the original Tangerine dream Edgar Frose Chris franke and Johannes Shmoeliing.

[@edbuller4435]

Peter Baumann. Johannes was 5 years away
