Forma Tadre is a German musical project that can best be described as electro with a feel of soundtracks and ambient but has also been categorized as industrial or electronic body music. The only member of Forma Tadre is Andreas Meyer, also known as Andy Meya.

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, 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" [ [http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=28432_0_2_0_C Forma Tadre returns after 8 years of silence with 'The Music of Erich Zann' album] ] .
