Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally intended for radio and television synchronization, this early library record features Jean-Jacques Perrey pioneering the use of the Ondioline. The primitive synthesizer is used to craft incredibly whimsical, futuristic soundscapes that heavily predicted the moog-pop explosion of the late 60s. It stands as a crucial, historically significant document of early commercial electronic music.
