Classic Period
The classic era of Berlin School commenced with the release of Phaedra by Tangerine Dream in 1974 on Virgin Records. In 1975 they followed up with a studio album, Rubycon, and a live album, Ricochet.
Moondawn by Klaus Schulze in 1976 is often regarded as his first real entry in this genre. Tangerine Dream delivered a studio work, Stratosfear, and the soundtrack to the film Sorcerer.
In 1977 Ashra (Manuel Göttsching) released New Age of Earth along with Michael Hoenig's Departure from the Northern Wasteland. Tangerine Dream toured the United States and released a double live album, Encore, with three sides of Berlin School and a side of proto-ambient music.
