	Silver Apples Of The Moon Used - Vinyl - H-71174 1967 Stereo Original. LP Appears Glossy. This Is The Debut Of The Pioneer And Innovator In Electronic Music. "Silver Apples of the Moon" is a pioneering electronic music album by composer Morton Subotnick, released in 1967. It holds historical significance as one of the first full-length pieces of electronic music commissioned by a record company, Nonesuch Records, specifically for release on vinyl. Subotnick employed the Buchla 100 synthesizer, an innovative instrument at the time, to create complex and layered soundscapes that were groundbreaking in their exploration of electronic timbres and structures. The album is divided into two parts, reflecting its original LP format, and showcases a range of sonic textures and rhythmic patterns that were unconventional and experimental for the era. The album is noted for its departure from traditional musical forms, embracing a more abstract and avant-garde approach. "Silver Apples of the Moon" is characterized by its use of sequenced patterns and modulated tones, which create a sense of movement and evolution throughout the piece. It challenged the perception of music as a live, performative art by emphasizing the capabilities of studio technology and electronic synthesis. The album's innovative use of technology and its contribution to the development of electronic and avant-garde music have cemented its status as a landmark work, influencing generations of composers and musicians in the electronic music genre. more

Morton Subotnick's "Until Spring" is a pioneering work in the realm of electronic music, known for its innovative use of synthesizers and electronic textures. Released in 1976, the album showcases Subotnick's ability to create an immersive auditory experience through the use of the Buchla synthesizer, an instrument he helped to develop. "Until Spring" exemplifies Subotnick's exploration of new sonic landscapes, as it weaves together complex layers of sound that challenge traditional musical structures and blur the boundaries between composition and sound design. The work reflects Subotnick's commitment to pushing the limits of electronic music, using technology as a means to explore new forms of artistic expression. The album is characterized by its abstract, avant-garde approach, where traditional melody and rhythm are often eschewed in favor of evolving soundscapes and textures. Subotnick’s mastery of the Buchla synthesizer allows for the creation of a dynamic and fluid auditory experience, with sounds that seem to morph and transform organically. "Until Spring" captures a sense of temporal evolution and transformation, a theme suggested by its title, as it evokes the cyclic nature of seasons. The piece is celebrated for its contribution to the development of electronic music and its influence on subsequent generations of composers and electronic musicians who continue to explore the possibilities of synthesized sound. more
