Electronic, trance...

The Berlin School essentially created, from scratch, 5 music sub genre. With Froese front and center.

Daft Punk, during their next concert, live show...whatever, should play a minute long D flat in an irony shout out.

Wow. This is the first I've heard of this.


Such a shame. I became a belated TD fan in the mid 80s, thus preferring a fairly broad period from the late 70s up to the mid 90s and some of their Dream Mixes material.


I know his son, Jerome, was very involved in the band for quite some time, but has been doing more solo stuff recently. I wonder if he'll keep it going, or just let it end.

Its been said that Edgar was the one actively against reuniting with Peter and Chris (apparently he and Chris had a real falling out during Livemiles) so who knows what the hell will happen.
