I've been wondering if there's any fans of this here, anyone know/love this? They were a really early electronic group, like Fifty Foot Hose/Silver Apples/et al this is their first album from 1969. Hard to describe, there's a few weird light baroque-pop songs twisted around with tape manipulation, and some traditionally twisted tracks that aren't pop at all. Definite classical music influence throughout and I think this has aged a lot better than a lot of the other electronic wankery from back then.
More informaysun I tried to find samples but I'm too lazy, samples are so 1997, anyway. Full album or bust.

I dug this out of my dad's record collection some time ago after spotting the intriguing cover. And then I read about Delia Derbyshire and how important a figure she is/was blah blah blah. I only got around to playing it the other night and it was pretty good; defo ahead of its time.

Yeah, very visionary. The second album sounds a bit cheesier though, less emphasis on melding that wicked songwriting with weird sounds, and more emphasis on... weird sounds. The songwriting is definitely what makes An Electric Storm, for me. And the vocals/voices.

Weird DATED sounds, I should say. A lot of it still holds up pretty well though.
