History
Originally from the Lower-Saxon region of Germany, Andreas Meyer was heavily influenced by the electronic band Tangerine Dream. In fact, the name Forma Tadre is a sort of portmanteau from Tangerine Dream's album Force Majeure.
Forma Tadre has done quite a bit of remix work for Haujobb, New Mind, :Wumpscut: and others. Andreas collaborated with Haujobb member Daniel Myer to form the band Newt.
In 2008, after 8 years of silence Forma Tadre returns with the new 13-track album "The Music of Erich Zann". "The Music of Erich Zann" is available for download on 19 January from iTunes only.
