The sixth album from this band from Germany.
The band was a trio with a lineup of gong, guitar, organ, piano, moog, mellotron and synths.
I am again dipping my toes into a genre I find deeply unimpressive. But I have commited myself to review a dozen or so Tangerine Dream albums and I am sticking to the task. So if you love this genre and this band.... look away now.
This album consists of two tracks, Rubycon I and Rubycon II. Both are just under eighteen minutes long.
Part I is surprisingly organic with a lot of things going on at the end of this track. Some of it is really good too.
Part I runs into Part II without a break or stop. The music is not as organic and varied in the beginning. After some drone parts, the music becomes more brighter and lighter at the end.
The final half of Part I is by far the best piece of music here. The rest is decent enough and this makes this album sitting somewhere between decent and good. I am still not won over....
