Hyperborea for me is one of the last albums that show me a part of the perspective that Tangerine Dream had built in the 1970-1980(1981) period(i'll include the 1985 album "Le Parc").Until 1997,when "Mars Polaris" explores again in a wonderfull manner the electronic space music, many of the studio can be easely confused with the light- soundtrack material and are very commercial."Hyperborea" starts very good in my opinion and taste with "No Man's Land",which is energic,deep composed,with not so many distinctive themes and togheter with "Sphinx Lighning" draws the TD lines and melodicity. The other two parts are not anymore reflecting that.The overvolumed percussion really starts to bug me at one point,and the light-themes used in other albums of the 80's (Le Parc;Underwater Sunlight) are clearly noticed.3 stars,although it oscilattes during the tracks between 2 1/2 and 3 1/2.
