Album Notes & Community Reviews

Spearheaded by BBC Radiophonic Workshop pioneer Delia Derbyshire, this obscure electronic ensemble crafted a profoundly unnerving, wildly innovative cult classic. 'An Electric Storm' is fiercely avant-garde and wonderfully mysterious, blending highly surreal, intensely sexual tape manipulations with beautiful, yet deeply ominous psychedelic space-age pop.

Genres

Descriptors: avant-garde, atmospheric, experimental, electronic, ritualistic, dreamy, sampling
