Tangerine Dream expanded upon the cosmic oneirism of Zeit by adding a sequencer-driven pulse on Phaedra, an album which pushed the electronics technology of its time to breaking-point. Recorded for the recently-formed Virgin Records, Phaedra was that label’s first classic release, a mysterious voyage into myth, sub-conscious and the very process of artistic creation. Tangerine Dream would build upon and re-enact Phaedra for many years to follow, but this was the climax of their first creative cycle; as enigmatic as a Surrealist painting by Dalí or Ernst, and equally steeped in majestic Freudian horror.
