    Beyond description
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2015*

How do you even begin to rate an album like this? It is so abstract that it almost doesn't even qualify as music and yet it offers an experience so extraordinary that most music wishes it could accomplish even half of the impact that it creates. Phaedra is beyond description. Unless you hear it, are surrounded by it, take the time to lose yourself in it, there is no way to convey what it is like. For that reason I think it is worthy of a 5-star rating. There is a reason this is one of the most acclaimed albums from an era full of great music. Are you experienced? You should be.

    The classic Tangerine Dream sound emerges
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2007*

This 1974 release is a remarkable album that finds Tangerine Dream on a new label (Virgin Records) and beginning to forge the soundscapes-from-outer-space that would make them famous.  Along with Rubycon (1975), this album also finds Tangerine Dream at a creative peak and features the exhilarating combination of gothic, brooding atmospheres and some of the creepy experimentation that was a carry-over from their earlier albums, particularly Atem (1973).The lineup on Phaedra is classic Tangerine Dream and includes Edgar Froese (mellotron, guitar; bass guitar; VCS3 synthesizer; and Hammond organ); Christopher Franke (Moog synthesizer; keyboards, VCS3 synthesizer); and Peter Baumann (Hammond organ; E-Piano; VCS3 synthesizer; and flute).The four pieces on the album range in length from 2:20 to the lengthy progressive electronica epic title track (17:35).  As can be imagined, this album is loaded with pulsating, throbbing, and whooshing sounds on the VCS3, particularly on the lengthy title track.  The mellotron (with string setting) also has a strong presence here, and is featured on the "mellotron saturated", cosmic, and minor key workout entitled Mysterious Semblance at the Strand of Nightmares (9:43) (this is one of my favorite pieces on the album).  Movements of a Visionary (7:57) is a comparatively more experimental piece and features otherworldly sounds generated on the VCS3 and driving passages generated on sequencers atop which long and drawn-out chords (with tiny modulations) are played on a "churchy" sounding Hammond organ.  The closing track is an extremely sad and haunting piece, which features very spacey and heavily echoed flute and synthesizer parts.  This is another favorite track and a great way to end the album.Although this version has not been remastered, the sound quality is pretty good.All in all, this is a superb album from Tangerine Dream and is very highly recommended along with

    Totally Spacey and Music for the imagination.
  

*by R***T on Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2013*

Tangerine Dream once again delivers as usual .The tile cut "Phaedra" is spectacular and all the music is dreamy and animated. Tangerine dream has always been my favorite alternative group. They did a great soundtrack for the movie "Legend" and "Firestarter". Go for it for an ultimate experience in imagination!!!
