How to Contact Tangerine Dream Directly
I first found out about Tangerine Dream from an article in one of my Atari computer magazines (I don't remember anymore if the article appeared in either Antic Magazine or if it appeared in STart Magazine). The article was about the group and their use of Atari ST computers to assist them with the creation of their music. It was an interesting article and I remembered the name of the group. Back in 1993, I got my first CD player and I wanted to listen to their music as a novelty since I remembered them from the article that had been published several years earlier. I wanted to listen to one of their CDs just to see what kind of music they created with the assistance of an Atari ST computer. I expected to just buy one of their CDs and that was going to be it. Little did I know that I was going to enjoy that first CD so much that I decided to buy even more of them. Today, I buy just about any CD I can get my hands on so long as Tangerine Dream is on it. For those curious as to which CD it was that I first purchased, the title of the CD was "The Private Music of Tangerine Dream".
While I still listen to the actual CDs from time to time, I have actually turned just about all my CDs in MP3s and I use Music Match to keep track of all the songs and albums from which they came from. Music Match is an excellent program that works as a database, MP3 creater and can take MP3s and turn them into Audio CDs. It logs into the CD database on the internet and gets the track info for you. I no longer need to enter the song titles or album like I used to with the Windows CD player.
If you wish to to see the pictures of all the albums that I currently own, go to the My Album Collection.
This section of the web page
includes links to the pictures of all the albums that I currently own.
Since I don't currently have a scanner, I borrow a scanner from a friend
of mine and slowly add to the list. It takes time to obtain the pictures,
shrink them to a smaller size, and create a 256 color image to keep the
files small enough for viewing. Because of all the work involved, I am
slowly adding pictures as I go along. Keep coming back to see what
new albums have been added. Ok then here we go! :)
