AMG Review of Midnight Express

John Bush
All Music Guide

Though there are a few queasy pop/vocal tracks, Moroder's soundtrack to #Midnight Express earns points for an array of exploratory synthesizer pieces (including "Wheel" and "Cacaphoney") as well as its opener, "Chase." One of Moroder's biggest hits, the track bounces back and forth between melodic disco and hypnotic sequencer trance just one step removed from the likes of Tangerine Dream.
