As one of the founding fathers of the Krautrock movement, Tangerine Dream were resoponsible for defining a movement. The new-age band that were founded in Berlin in 1967 put on a home performance at Admiralspalast this May.
Their sci-fi prog sound has been highly influencial on the evolution of contemporary genres such as italo, experimental as well as for a generation of modern minimal producers.
Tangerine Dream is a German electronic music group founded in 1967 by Edgar Froese. The band has undergone many personnel changes over the years, with Froese being the only continuous member.

Drummer and composer Klaus Schulze was briefly a member of an early lineup, but the most stable version of the group, during their influential mid-1970s period, was as a keyboard trio with Froese, Christopher Franke, and Peter Baumann. Early in the 1980s, Johannes Schmoelling replaced Baumann, and this lineup, too, was stable and extremely productive.
