Tangerine Dream The Sessions IV

Tangerine Dream live compositions from Festivals in Pisa, Oslo and Gothenburg

Invisible Hands Music are proud to release the 'Sessions IV' EP on Double LP, 140g translucent green vinyl. The 'Sessions IV' LP contains instant live compositions (about 80 min of music) from the current TD line-up Thorsten Quaeschning, Ulrich Schnauss and Hoshiko Yamane recorded from the Saturday and Sunday concerts at the E-Live Festival in Oirschot, The Netherlands in October 2018.

2025 marks the 10th anniversary of Tangerine Dream bandleader Edgar Froese's passing. Thorsten Quaeschning has been the bandleader since 2015, and in 2025 he celebrates his 20th Anniversary of joining Tangerine Dream.

In their imperial years of the 1970s, Tangerine Dream's live concerts were an electronic exploration, improvised and different every night, with little or no relationship to their smash hit albums, which were similarly esoteric. As the 1980s dawned, their recorded work contained more recognisable themes and they scored some of the biggest films of the decade (Risky Business, Firestarter, Near Dark, Thief, Sorcerer).

Now, they are returning in part to those pioneering days, and every show includes a section of improvisation, different every night. The best improvisations are being released as 'Sessions', and Invisible Hands Music is proud to release them out on deluxe double vinyl mastered at Abbey Road by Miles Showell.
