Never heard of her until your post. Been looking into her stuff. Just cannot get into her music at all. The dots just don't connect for me.

R.I.P. Klaus Schulze. I have one of his albums (which is not easy on the ear), but I have heard some of his other work and there are pieces I do like. He'd been going to release a new album in June, if I'm not mistaken, so I'd been listening to one of the tracks which has gradually grown on me ...
