Tangerine Dream - Love On A Real Train (State Azure Cover)

Please like and subscribe!

Live performance/cover of one of my favourite Tangerine Dream tracks. Utilising a little help from a couple of Elektron boxes :)

Analog Four is doing three sequencer parts plus a bass, while the RYTM is doing almost all the drums. Other layers, pads/atmospheric stuff are sequenced in the DAW (Studio One Pro 3) with levels controlled by the faders on the Akai MPK261 midi keyboard. Parts I'm playing are soft-synths; Falcon/Zebra2 (soft bells), Diva (lead synth part), Dune 2 (gritty pad/lead) via multi-instrument keyboard split.

I’m 78 years old and not much time left. I’m so happy I discovered this music before I passed into the great unknown. For some reason, this music takes me back when life was unencumbered and good. Life is tough now for most of us but this music puts a little joy back into my life. Stay safe and healthy my friends. Tom.

[alanreynolds]

I"m 73 now. I love this music. Can I still play in your game? Age is a number but good music is timeless.

[TAM-mjlb]

I am 78 and am still IN the game. Most people who consider themselves still actionable never make age the pre-requisite to belonging on the positive side of life.
Music like this is timeless and limitless.
It allows the spirit to soar and stay out of the confines of the day-to-day imposed struggle...this struggle is largely self-imposed, so throw off these shackles and... L I V E

[daveb]

God do I wish these days were here again.
To everyone listening to this you have Amazing taste in music, take care All of you from the 🇬🇧

[kubel]

Can most of us all agree there is something incredible and magic about 80’s Synth music. God I love this! Gives me goosebumps each time.

[ronnyp]

I'm 62 and that is the best eight and a half minutes in the dark
i have had for quite some time ..

[caiusKeys]

Tangerine Dream did it all before anybody even knew it...

[AirShark]

It was around 1am and I was driving back from a long day sightseeing Niagara Falls. I was listening to a massive playlist I had made full of electronica and smooth ambient music. The brilliant skyline of Toronto was getting closer, and soon enough I found myself on the Gardiner Expressway, an elevated highway cutting through the heart of Toronto. As I'm merging on to the Gardiner, this song comes on. Now the Gardiner is notorious for being one of the most congested highways in the GTA, but that night it was flowing like smooth silk. There could not have been a better time for this song to have come on. Crusing at night surrounded by the towering office and condo blocks of Toronto, glowing in the night sky. The CN Tower bathed in colourful hues of red and blue, the Skydome glowing like some alien mothership. It was easily one of the most pleasant and relaxing night drives I have ever had. I never thought a night drive could've been so memorable!

[EddieGD]

I only just realized this music was what made that incredible love on the train scene in Risky Business so evocative. Man, I wish I could live life over again. Those 80's and 90's movies...such special memories. Life was simple back then. We were young...and the future was full of promise.

[paulfromdevon]

In a dark cinema in 83. The subway train, the shadows and the momentum. And THIS wonderful track. Stunning

[martinjurovic]

This gives me the feeling of anticipation, something good is coming.

[chefprov]

The “Risky Business” soundtrack was the first compact disk that I had ever bought, , , played on the first ever Sony Diskman that did nothing, , but PLAY. Yes it skipped if you breathed too hard on it ! It was like $700 new, , and was MINDBLOWINGLY AWESOME !

[ToMiKA]

6 am. Tokyo. 2017. I was jogging along the riverbank in the dark as the dark blue sky gradually shifted to a golden sunrise.. This was my soundtrack everyday until I had to leave.. I hope to jog that same route again one day...

Thank you for fueling my soul <3

[nevetsgnil]

This is what the 80s sounds like, neon coloured sound. Takes me back to a better time.

[howardcrosby]

70’s Prog Rock, such a gift, so sad it’s gone!! At least we still have our albums!!!! 63 and missing it so much, thank you FM

[christopheradderley]

In their field, Tangerine Dream were truly
sound breaking 🧡

[nathanbrown]

I'm 69 and I agree not much time left, Tangerine Dream has and always will be a great music, glad I was here to enjoy it.

[roboify]

I’ve been a fan of Tangerine Dream for decades. I’m 70 and still listen to them. I have an old iPod mini with TD albums and the solo works put out by some of the individual members in it hooked into my car sound system. Whenever I go on a long drive I turn the iPod on and drive.

[AuroraBeats]

It’s not just the rhythm or the bass — it’s the story that every note tells. And somehow, it always sounds like my story.

[acebrown]

Doesn't matter your age race or culture, this music right here soothes the soul...
