Tom Dissevelt & Kid Baltan-Song of the Second Moon,LP,1968,USA
(first issue as Electrosonics)
Forst released in 1957 under the name of Electrosonics(see above) and then re-released in 1968 under the name of the 2 composers mentioned.Very early primitive electronic experimentations!
A bit of trivia... this music, slowed down approximately to 50% of its speed, can be heard as the backing music on the lps "Tales of the Frightened", which feature scary stories read by Boris Karloff.
I own this LP, but in not very good shape since I got it as a present from my godmother. I've been looking for it for years and tonight I got up from bed because of insomnia, googled it and here it is! WOW! Thank you very much!
This is some surpisingly forward sounding stuff, considering the time period - very abstract, not dated sounding at all. Recommended.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for everything you guys do.
I agree with Bob, this album could be from anytime, and it's such a mind-blowing masterpiece!

ReplyDeleteAnother correction:
This release was from The Netherlands , NOT USA !
Also the correct spelling is Electrosoniks, not Electrosonics.
