Wednesday, April 17, 2024: Dobie Gray - Drift Away


 

"Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light through the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that I hate to loseAnd I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame?Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soulI wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift awayOh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soulI wanna get lost in your rock 'n' roll and drift away"
 
-Dobie Gray
 
You ever feel like this?

Thursday, April 11, 2024: Ulrich Schnauss and Jonas Munk - Sirocco


 

Thank God for the way this blog saves lables of previously posted artists.  

Turns out, I actually have posted about Ulrich Schnauss before, imagine that.

Saturday, November 17, 2012: Ulrich Schnauss - Knuddelmaus

It's the same kind of smooth and cool instrumental electronica that attracted me to today's song. 

Ulrich Schnauss

And a quick view through his Wikipedia page, and now it all makes sense:

Ulrich Schnauss (born 1977) is a German electronic musician and producer based in London, England. 

He was a member of Tangerine Dream from 2014 to 2020.

TANGERINE DREAM!  That's where I know this music from!  They were THE GREATEST!  The soundtracks for Firestarter, and The Keep, and Sorcerer, you cannot overstate the impact this music had on me when I was young.  

I dig this so much.
