NP: Symphonies No 4 & 5 - Henk Badings
Great music rooted in the late symphonic tradition. Strauss and Mahler come to mind. Curious that I would encounter Henk Badings and his contemporary Wolfgang Zeller at the same time. Both had entanglements with the Nazis but Zeller's involvement was much more serious and disturbing.
VolkerBach's music is vibrant and inspired. -

Very much worth your time Tom and Volker or anyone else interested in the historical story behind Shostakovitch's 7th symphony.

The new DT album 'The Astonishing' : 130 minutes long, a rock opera concept album, pretty great for my tastes but exhausting to hear it in one sitting (or even two)..."considering I've seen an enormous debate here about The Amazing Spider-Man and the ones who love it, and the ones who hate it, I feel myself obliged to say: TASTE DIFFERS, DEAL WITH IT" - Thomas G. -

Well, I'm not too familiar with his projects either. I have two albums in my collection The Human Equation wich I like a lot. Prog fans in general seem to prefer my other entry Into the Electric Castle. "Castle" is very proggy and experimental but can be tiring when listened to in one go. "Equation" is a bit more mainstream. Wonderful melodies, harmony singing and of course instrumental brilliance and general oomph.
PS: He is well represented on Spotify.Bach's music is vibrant and inspired. -

I don't have that album, actually. But it's funny how many people confuse it with Sting's "Englishman in New York" because they're called the same (the songs, though, couldn't be more different).I am extremely serious. -

NP: Outside (2015) - Maximilien Mathevon
An electronica album that evokes the time around 1980. Not - that is my guess - an album that recreates the sound of yesteryear with historic synths but it does so with contemporary means. I't not a pastiche of any certain artist. Influences have be accepted from various directions and transformed into something original and really worthwhile.

It's a fine album, but his previous electronic album -- VACUUM LOGIC -- is even better, IMO. It also taps into 70s electro styles (Tangerine Dream and Jean Michel Jarre, in particular).I am extremely serious. -
