Bloody Genius! How long did you study the cover to discover this?
Its way beyond coincidence!

I can't take credit for this, read it in a forum some years ago.

But still it's interesting. I wonder if there are more hidden messages on the records...

You know the backwards talk on Electronic Meditation. It is just someone reading from the back of a ferry ticket. Maybe not so exciting.

And the song names on The Seven Letters From Tibet, found this in a review...

"The Seven Letters From Tibet contains seven songs, which are named after the seven colours of the rainbow (Although yellow and violet are referred to as Gold and purple). The other half of the song names refers to the Septenary idea that human nature consists of seven principles; the physical body - blood, the phantom body - breath, the life principle - heart, the desire form - land, the ordinary mind which attaches itself to desire - pearl, the spiritual soul - clouds and the one with absolute - all curtains."

But of course, this is only the reviewer's interpretation. Edgar's coming book on Tangerine Dream will hopefully shed some more light on things like this.

This is so interesting.
Ive always found meanings to TDs music but mainly from my own very vivid imagination.

i listened to Force Majeure backwards once & ever since ive been addicted to Curry Flavoured Noodles ever since!

Well if I'm not hallucinating things, the cover of One Times One gives the same hidden message both from a traditional symbolical and also from a scientific point of view...
(And it's only as spiritual a message as you want it to be, that's one thing I like about TD.)

What I'd like to know is what "Metaphor" is about ... I mean a title like that almost shouts "hidden message" !

On "Sleeping Watches Snoring In Silence" there's a surprise appearance of bee sounds (4:17 - 4:26). As far as I remember Edgar somewhere said that we (people in general) are the "Sleeping Watches", and 2006/2007 were the years when the media reported about the mass disappearance/death of bees all around the world. Makes one wonder ...

I think Edgar is trying to get us to exercise our brains

I'll be curious to have an explanation about the tittle :"ça va ,ça marche ,
ça ira encore".

nooo his latest one is more like party music for a chilly day at Stonehenge ...

Now I remember another little "secret".

La Folia is a very old tune that has been re-used by many composers including TD.

yep

If you decipher the cover of the TDI version of Rockoon there is a similar message.

agree NOL , also love all the album names, so original!

The names of many of the tracks are evocative and make one think........

I love.....

Mysterious Semblance at the Stand of Nightmares

Rising Runner Missed by Endless Sender

and
especially for some reason

Thru Metamorphic Rocks


Excellent stuff.

Really? Cool... What does it say? (I've got an older release of Rockoon).

Then there was also a message in the symbols on the MFD cover. Something related to Syd Barrett? Anyone know that one too?
