The first official studio album with the line-up Franke, Froese, Schmoelling goes back again to the classic sequencer sound but also contains foreshadows of the melodic period of Tangerine Dream.
It spend five weeks in the UK Top 40 and became the fifth biggest selling album.
“Though TD’s trademark sequencers make a brief, if decisive appearance around the 13-minute mark, ‘Tangram Set 1’ is uncharacteristically warm, blissful and balmy, while the crisp synth motifs and insistent electronic rhythms that pop up during the ever-morphing ‘Tangram Set 2’ suggest Froese and co were already well on the way to planning the unexpected raid on the dancefloor they would pull off on 1981’s Exit.”
