The r/OldElectronicMusic subreddit brought me here! Love it
🔥 💣 💚- Well from a look at the vinyl the pressing looks bad with dips and weird rippling on the first track side 1. I will listen tomorrow when my other stuff turns up for a listening session but it already feels concerning what it will sound like. A brand new copy from JUNO Records.. i'm sure as vinyl has become more popular the price has gone up and the quality has gone down. Most new things i buy now I have to have replaced or refunded because of defects such a shame
- I absolutly agree with tvfats review here...Besides that I think this is one of the creepiest soundtracks ever...sounds absolutly disturbing...A true mastepiece...

'The Piedmont Elegy' sounds a bit like a 1970s Autechre.referencing The Andromeda Strain (Original Electronic Soundtrack) (LP, 10", Shape, Album, Stereo, Hexagonal) KRS 5513
Got my copy of this lp 9.60 GBP 12 yrs ago.. Bfor the vinyl revival twats latched onto it- Record Store Day doesn't always put out the "BEST" stuff but this one IS a winner...Movie soundtrack by Gil Melle is ALL electronic...Remember, this was way back in 1971 and that was a rarity on VINYL then...Dynamite movie by Michael Crichton and this far out sounding music more than works with the subject matter...Only 1500 released on RSD, so I am a happy camper having this more than eclectic LP on my shelf...It actually is die cut as a hexagonal album...Reminds me of the free plastic records that used to come in magazines in the 60's through the 80's...This is one you can say is "SUPER COOL" and be totally right...

Every time I hear this album I feel it's the first time I've heard it. And it is, it really is. Exquisite. Absolute genius. Gil Mellé invented the instrument used here and used it like only a master musician can. You don't need an expensive copy of this album. Even an mp3 version can reveal its unique perfection.- Edited 4 years agoI concur with Boxfish's comment below. Tracks 2 and 3 in particular are marred by a flaw in this pressing, with popping throughout. A real bummer having just purchased a copy at my local record store.

This is a slightly noisy album, lots of crackles throughout, I wonder how the original pressing is in comparison, I just didn't want to spend what people were asking for it. referencing The Andromeda Strain: Original Electronic Soundtrack (CDr, Reissue, Unofficial Release) 028
