Tubular Bells — artist
Tubular Bells is not an artist but a groundbreaking instrumental album by British musician Mike Oldfield, released in 1973. The album is primarily recognized for its progressive rock and minimalist style, blending elements of folk, classical, and ambient music. Influenced by composers like Terry Riley and the emerging electronic music scene, Oldfield's work is characterized by its intricate multi-layered compositions and the use of a wide array of instruments. The opening theme gained significant attention as it was used in the film "The Exorcist," further cementing its place in music history.
