Edgar Froese, father of the most innovative e-music group, Tangerine Dream, after an almost-30-years pause, plays Mellotron again. Last Sunday he played live in Eindhoven with his band, and onstage he used the new M4000 model which was premiered by us last year. The Mellotron sound was an essential element in the most successful years of TD in the seventies - and they did a good job to let the audience worldwide what kind of instruments it is. They heavily used all the preset tapes, and even recorded custom ones, filled with orchestral instruments and industrial noises. Now Froese played the instrument in only one classical song, Maroubra Bay.
