Industrial producer Andreas Meyer named his project Forma Tadre in honor of the landmark Tangerine Dream LP Force Majeure. Meyer, from Bielefeld, Germany, began recording with "Celebrate the Cult" from The O-Files compilation on Offbeat Records. Mixes followed for Haujobb (also from Bielefeld), and Offbeat eventually signed Forma Tadre; debut album Navigator appeared in early 1997. Meyer also participates in the project N.E.W.T. (with Haujobb's Daniel Myer) and Eisriesenkoenig. ~ John Bush
