Flashpoint

The movie Flashpoint starred Kris Kristofferson and Treat Williams.

“Another by-the-numbers score from Tangerine Dream, though a little more interesting this time, with the odd bit of unusual dynamics and a few examples of something other than the arpeggio-driven synthesizer tones. Good driving music.”

In most productions where you can hear songs you work only with women. Is there any reason for that?

Answered by Edgar Froese

I don’t know how other groups handle this, but we have experienced that working with women makes a very good atmosphere. There might be exceptions, but fortunately we have never had any real stress situations. According to our experience, women are much more disciplined workers. They never came to the recording dates without preparation. In the Dante Trilogy, however, there were also other reasons for working only with women, related to the pitches of the voice of alto, soprano and mezzo-soprano. Furthermore, it is an excellent way of understanding the intuition of women. But you must not try to stick to the archaic patterns of behavior that are common in most relationships. It’s not for nothing that Iris and Linda have been working with us as guest musicians for years. It is just very much fun, and at the same time we are doing professional work with them.
