Following the release of Tangerine Dream\u2019s<\/strong> latest studio album, Quantum<\/i><\/b> Gate<\/b><\/i>, Kscope are set to release the album as a 2CD set with the inclusion of the EP Quantum Key<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Quantum Gate released on September 29th 2017, to coincide and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the band,? was the first studio album since the passing of Edgar<\/strong> Froese<\/strong>, <\/strong>Tangerine Dream\u2019s visionary founder, by the remining band members Thorsten Quaeschning<\/strong>, Ulrich Schnauss<\/strong> and Hoshiko Yamane<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Quantum<\/b><\/em> Key <\/strong>EP preceded Quantum Gate,<\/i><\/strong> and both delivered an updated, contemporary development of their trademark sound: sequencer-driven electronica covering a wide range of moods and atmospheres from ambient soundscapes to energetic, upbeat moments. The Quantum Years material began as a concept and series of musical sketches by Froese before he passed away in 2015. Remaining band members Thorsten Quaeschning, Ulrich Schnauss and Hoshiko Yamane worked together to realize Edgar’s visions and expectations of a conceptual body of work that attempts to translate quantum physics and philosophy into music. New member Ulrich Schnauss comments: “at the moment hardly any other area of science questions our concept of reality (linearity of time etc.) as profoundly as research in Quantum physics?- it’s no surprise therefore that Edgar was drawn to these ideas since he had always aimed at reminding listeners of the existence of ‘unopened doors’.”<\/em><\/p>\n

This version of Quantum Gate<\/em> with the inclusion of Quantum Key<\/em> EP, brings together Edgar\u2019s vision as a 2 disc set for the first time.<\/p>\n
