Album Notes & Community Reviews
Introducing acoustic guitars and traditional percussion into their swirling sequencer frameworks, Tangerine Dream crafted one of their most accessible and highly cinematic masterworks. 'Stratosfear' is an incredibly hypnotic, intensely atmospheric exploration of the Berlin School, using deeply repetitive, futuristic synthesizers to evoke a wonderfully meditative, slightly ominous sense of suspense.
