===Soundtracks=== Throughout the 1980s, Tangerine Dream composed scores for more than 20 films. This had been an interest of Froese's since the late 1960s, when he scored and acted in the experimental film "''Auf Scheißer schießt man nicht''", directed by [[Hansjürgen Pohland]]. Many of the group's soundtracks were composed at least partially of reworked material from the band's studio albums or work that was in progress for upcoming albums; see, for example, the resemblance between the track "Igneous" on their soundtrack for ''[[Thief (soundtrack)|Thief]]'' and the track "Thru Metamorphic Rocks" on their studio release ''[[Force Majeure (Tangerine Dream album)|Force Majeure]]''. Their first exposure on US television came when a track for the then in-progress album ''[[Le Parc (album)|Le Parc]]'' was used as the theme for the television program, ''[[Street Hawk]]''. Some of the more famous soundtracks have been ''[[Sorcerer (soundtrack)|Sorcerer]]'', ''[[Thief (soundtrack)|Thief]]'', ''[[Legend (Tangerine Dream soundtrack)|Legend]]'', ''[[Risky Business (soundtrack)|Risky Business]]'', ''[[The Keep (Tangerine Dream album)|The Keep]]'',<ref name=U>{{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/03/movies/tangerine-dreams-music-in-bamcinematek-series.html |work=[[The New York Times]] |title=Underscoring the Drama in the Dark |author=Rapold, Nicolas |date=June 1, 2012}}</ref> ''[[Firestarter (soundtrack)|Firestarter]]'',<ref>{{cite web |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9A0CE0DD1E38F932A25756C0A962948260 |title=SCREEN: 'FIRESTARTER', A STEPHEN KING STORY |author-link=Vincent Canby |author=Canby, Vincent |date=May 11, 1984}}</ref> ''[[Flashpoint (1984 film)|Flashpoint]]'',<ref>{{cite web |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9805E3DB1038F932A0575BC0A962948260 |title=SCREEN: 'FLASHPOINT', WITH KRIS KRISTOFFERSON |author-link=Janet Maslin |author=Maslin, Janet |date=August 31, 1984}}</ref> ''[[Heartbreakers (1984 film)|Heartbreakers]]'', ''[[Shy People]]'', and ''[[Near Dark]]''.<ref>{{cite web |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9B0DE0D71439F937A35753C1A961948260 |title=Film: 'Near Dark', a Tale of Vampires on the Road |author=James, Caryn |date=October 4, 1987}}</ref><ref>{{cite AV media|title=Film: 'Identification of a Woman' |author=Michelangelo, Antonioni |date=October 21, 1982}}</ref> Tangerine Dream also composed 35 hours of music stems for the video game, ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]''.<ref name="gamescores">{{cite magazine |author=Shamoon, Evan |title=Inside The Grand Theft Auto V Soundtrack |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=28 August 2013 |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/news/inside-the-grand-theft-auto-v-soundtrack-20130828 |access-date=15 September 2017 |archive-date=7 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170807153755/http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/news/inside-the-grand-theft-auto-v-soundtrack-20130828 |url-status=dead }}</ref> In 2016, Tangerine Dream released their own version of the [[theme music]] for the television series ''[[Stranger Things]]''.<ref name=RS>{{cite magazine |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/hear-tangerine-dreams-eerie-take-on-stranger-things-theme-w439301 |title=Hear Tangerine Dream's Spooky Cover of 'Stranger Things' Theme |author=Kreps, Daniel |date=12 September 2016 |access-date=15 September 2017 |archive-date=20 September 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170920063941/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/hear-tangerine-dreams-eerie-take-on-stranger-things-theme-w439301 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Tangerine Dream had inspired music for the series.<ref name=RS/>
