About this album

Rubycon is a landmark in Tangerine Dream’s development from experimental electronics into immersive ambient form. Released in 1975, the album distils the group’s Berlin School approach into two extended sides of pulsing sequencers, drifting synthesisers and slow-blooming melodic texture. Built by Edgar Froese, Christopher Franke and Peter Baumann, it trades rock dynamics for patient momentum and became one of the key recordings that helped shape ambient and electronic music in the decade that followed. Its long-form structure and exploratory atmosphere make it one of the group’s most influential and enduring works.

Genre: Pop & Rock
