  • Description

    While the first album Dan Lacksman recorded in 1973 was an atypical
    singer-songwriter foray, the second album from that year—credited to
    his pseudonym Electronic System—featured the full flowering of his
    synthesizer mastery. His hit recording "Coconut" had enabled him to buy a
    modular synthesizer, which offered a vastly expanded tonal palette— if
    you had the patience to re-wire for each sound you wanted to achieve. Which
    was the perfect set-up for a studio engineer like Lacksman…the result is
    an album full of sonic surprises, with each track presenting multiple, unique
    synthesizer tones and attacks, even on such nakedly commercial moves
    as his cover of Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba." An analog synth tour de force!
    Presented on CD and a yellow vinyl pressing limited to 900 copies.
