Am I right in thinking that Manikin have dropped PPM?
Might be the other way round
AFAIK, neither way, but Manikin stopped publishing anything but Schönwälder music (i.e. his collaborations and friends stuff). Neither PPM nor Spyra nor Wadephul are in their catalog anymore.

I like Symphony for Vampires - but others here may be more up on the PPM stuff than myself - CJ and Jacob spring to mind !
Somnambulistic Tunes is also rather good.
That's correct. It's a damned good band. I'm also thinking about going to the Berlin gig in February, because it's a very different live experience compared to TD.
I'm also feeling a bit guilty of only having written a concert review and no cd reviews, as Thorsten actually seem to appreciate them!
I have a request to all those who like Thorsten's Picture Palace Music. Here in Los Angeles some of you know of a program called Alien Air Music that comes on at 9pm-11pm Sunday evenings. And you can also hear it through the website. The programs host is "Pat Murphy" and the programs been on since the mid 1980's. http://www.alienairmusic.com/history.htm I have contacted Pat a few times on trying to get Thorsten's band a shot on his program. Especially his newest album Natatorium which I think we all agree is outstanding. In my opinion, the album of the year. My request is if I can ask all of you to send an email on playing PPM's Natatorium on his show. According to Pat he has never heard of PPM. I think we need to expand Thorsten's band to here in the USA. More exposure is good. If you could please endorse PPM's Natatorium to Pat, I think he will like PPM's music!!
