Some instrumental music. The first track is dedicated to Mark Keill, without whom I would never have heard it :). The Froese track comes from the 4CD set "Solo (1974-1983): The Virgin Years", which is indispensable for the fan of Tangerine Dream and related works.
The Host of Seraphim
Dead Can Dance - The Serpent's Egg - 4AD
Epsilon in Malaysian Pale
Edgar Froese - Epsilon in Malaysian Pale - Virgin
Although Berlin-school electronic music originated and was popularized in Germany, it has been adopted by artists around the world in the decades since, including some in England. I'm going to play three such artists, one from each of the 90s, 00s, and this decade.
Bombers in the Desert
Redshift - II: Ether - Champagne Lake
The Emissaries Reveal Themselves
Radio Massacre International - Emissaries - Cuneiform
Thin Air
Node - Node 2 - DiN New
Hour two starts with a track from Nouvelle Frontière, a group featuring Richard and Marie-Claire Séguin (later of Séguin) and Normand Théroux, later of progressive group Le Match. This is followed by two tracks from Mahogany Frog.

Mahogany Frog - On Blue - Mafrogany Hog Canadian
Springtime for Canadian Youths
Mahogany Frog - On Blue - Mafrogany Hog Canadian
And now for a couple of old psychedelic monsters... Swedish group Älgarnas Trädgård and French singer Catherine Ribeiro.
Two hours over two blue mountains with a cuckoo on each side, of the hours... that is
