Brian Aspro-Music For BBC2 Documentaries,tape,198?,UK

Really great synth tape by a guy ,here called Brian Aspro, deeply involved with the electronic culture of the 80s,sometimes under the moniker "idid idid"(anyone got anything by them?) and lately appeared under the moniker The Beatless(if i'm not mistaken). Dark spacey excurtions ,sometimes touching experimental edges reminding early Robert Rental.Thomas Leer and of course Collin Potter !Any more info will be much appreciated.

This is very beautiful. Thanks for this and the wonderful postings that we wouldn't normally get a chance at hearing.

Thanks chaps...

No, you're not mistaken...in fact pretty spot on. Brian Aspro = The Beatless (on Soundclick)/Paul Beatless (on YouTube and a few other places)/ ...and probably a few other monikers I've forgotten about over the years.

'idid idid' was our gigging/cassette-release band around that time. There was also an idid idid cassette release on S.I.I.Y.E. called 'Love Theme from Jaqueline'. It's a funny ol' internet, eh?
