Terry Riley – A Rainbow In Curved Air
I feel close to this because of the organ and the tape loops and the trance feeling, but this is a different way of doing it - suddenly he was part of classical music, him and Steve Reich and Philip Glass. They all came more or less from jazz and became accepted and it was like a revolution in classical music, in terms of tonality and rhythm, inspired by African and Balinese music. This record was my first introduction to that. And that obviously had a huge influence on pop and electronic music.

And his composition In C… with some musicians in Brussels, I was part of a collective when the first Aksak Maboul came out and we set up a band with 25 musicians to perform that piece, which we did three or four times but in a rockier way, with synths and guitars and it was a lot of fun.
