I LOVE VANGELIS. I also like what I've heard of Jean-Michel Jarre (my dad was big into both of them, and so I've grown up hearing them), which isn't much to say I inherited his entire back catalogue after my dad died...

I don't know Kitaro or Laserdance, but I'm guessing they are also synth bands/artists?

Oh, danke! (Just a warning, my German is rubbish principally because I've had next to no practice with native speakers, so massive apologies in advance).
