Edgar Froese on Michael Mann
QUOTE
He got involved in our music by listening to a studio record called Force Majeure, which we recorded back in '78. He was listening to a piece called "Metamorphic Rocks" and so he put it into one of those sequences in Thief when they open up the roof on one of those skyscrapers. The sound mixed so well - that's what he said - that he called us and said, "Are you interested in doing the rest?". The thing is about Michael Mann, he's an American guy but he worked for about four years in London so he was very sympathetic with the European way of making films and using cameras. That's why he chose a lot of, what I would call French, British or early German shooting sequences in his movies. Like a man like Ridley Scott, who is known as a great American film maker, but in fact is very much British. He has given a big positive push to the American cinema by using certain European visions."

THere you have an early Froesian vision of film directors with whom he cooperated...
