https://www.facebook.com/TANGERINEDREAM.OFFICIALDear Friends,
This is a message to you we are very sorry for…
On January 20th, Tuesday afternoon, Edgar Froese suddenly and unexpectedly passed away from the effects of a pulmonary embolism in Vienna.
The sadness in our hearts is immensely.
Edgar once said: “There is no death, there is just a change of our cosmic address."
Edgar, this is a little comfort to us.
Yours,
TANGERINE DREAM TEAM

I'll have to spin some vintage TD in his honour tonight.

I'm staying away from Vienna.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS!
Stuntman is sooo fucking good...I'm just filled with sadness...RIP, Edgar..
Very very sad news. And yes, very unexpected.
Thank you Edgar for leaving behind a great legacy of music for everyone to enjoy for decades or even centuries to come.
Arguably the most important sculpture in the evolution of electronic music whereby it left the science table and entered the listening room.
R.I.P.
I cannot imagine a world without him it. Oh, this hurts.
I'm not lazy. I just work so fast I'm always done.
Now playing-
RIP

This is truly sad new, condolences to his family. Goes without saying that I will be playing a lot of Tangerine Dream this weekend. God speed my friend.
I'm so shocked and depressed right now. Ever since I was a child I've been following both TD and EF solo.. This really hurts alot! Just shed some tears listening to some of the timeless music this giant have produced through the decades. Long may his legacy continue!! Another of my heroes goes.. Tell me, did his finish his book?

We are the grandchildren of apes, not angels
But only we are gifted with the eyes to see
On days without FEAR, when our heads are clear
That angels, we could be
