Besides the classic organ and flute, Alpha Centauri features keyboards and electronic instruments. It’s the beginning of Kosmische Musik and it’s mysterious and spacey soundscapes.
“The centerpiece is the massive title-track: Not only does this piece take up the bulk of Alpha Centauri, it's an almost perfect summation of everything they'd accomplished up to that point. Beginning with distant flute, and gigantic cymbal swells, the track (like many before) takes a while to get off the ground, but when Froese's brand new VCS3 synthesizer makes with the siren calls, the outer limits are within reach.”
