[Mr.Krautman]

Sadly unnoticed, british EM composer and synth designer Adrian Wagner passed away a few months ago:

I allways loved his two early records from 1978-79 (Instincts and Last Inca) which showed excellent mastery of electronic soundscapes combined with good compositional skills.

After some research I found the man recorded no less than 11 CD's ! Is there anything else recommendable in his discography, similar to Inca/Instincts ? Or did he fall (like too many electronic musicians) in the insipid New Age/ambient trap ?

Sad news indeed.
I only have the LP The Last Inca, which was released on the famous Charisma label.
Haven't listened to it in ages, but I remember it was a fine album.
The LP has been released on CD together with Instincts under the new name Inca Gold.

Can't recommend any other albums though.

In truth I'm not at all familiar but based on the above, sounds like that needs to change.

RIP regardless.

I have " Distances Between Us" on CD. Which includes Robert Calvert doing a electronic version of Steppenwolf
