Think I have a Tangerine Dream CD or 3 that starts out like that.

TD created the soundtrack for one of my favorite obscure sci-fi films from the 80's - "The Keep", starrring Scott Glenn, Jurgen Prochnow, Ian McKellen and Gabriel Byrne. The music most definitely dates the movie.

There's a variant of this still around. It's called "Trance" and it's an offshoot of techno. They feature a lot of it at raves. My daughter used to listen to it.

Tubular Bells made some nice movie music too...

Tubular Bells is Mike Oldfield.  Another guy most think of as being a one hit wonder, but in reality has a 40 year new age career going for him.

Mike Oldfield - Tubular bells

He's OK, but I prefer the more experimantal side of things.  The more German the better.  ::laughonfloor::
