Zeit (meaning "time" in German) is a 1972 album by the German electronic music group Tangerine Dream. The style of this album is slower and more atmospheric than their previous albums. Indeed, it was considered to be a joke at the time due to its extreme avant garde nature. Florian Fricke from the Munich-based group Popol Vuh, playing Moog synthesizer, and four cellists appear on the first track. The album cover by Edgar Froese depicts a solar eclipse.
