The Rest in Peace Thread (RIP)

I also remember Snowflakes are Dancing and the W.Carlos albums; a friend of mine loved all that stuff. He also had:-

synth but not classical: Tonto's Expanding Head Band
classical but not synth: Jaques Loussier Trio

The albums I bought myself were:-

classical with some synth: The Velvet Gentleman
synth with some classical: W.Carlos' Clockwork Orange

Of all those, I think today my preference is probably for the JLT's jazzed up Bach material. Here's a little taster for anyone who wants it:-

Oh. Damn. I've heard his name thrown around a lot. Didn't know much about him but a shame nonetheless.

Quote:

Tomita has performed a number of outdoor "Sound Cloud" concerts, with speakers surrounding the audience in a "cloud of sound". He gave a big concert in 1984 at the annual contemporary music Ars Electronica festival in Linz, Austria called "Mind of the Universe", mixing tracks live in a glass pyramid suspended over an audience of 80,000 people.

RIP Tomita.
