BREGGER, DOUGLAS - Crystal Arcade

Original copies of this awesome outsider/"real people" style, homemade synth LP from 1988. Breggers next LP, "Vampire Radio" is sort of a holy grail of 80s weirdness as only 100 copies were pressed. This ones an edition of 300, despite what it says on the cover.. Still in shrink but theyve been opened to check for warpage. "My Influences -- a preliminary list: Amon Duul II, Carla Bley, Kate Bush, Laurie Anderson, Faust, Throbbing Gristle/Psychic TV, Klaus Schultz, Tangerine Dream (pre-1980), Sun Ra, Ken Nordine, George Russell, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Morton Subotnick, Alvin Lucier, Zoviet France, Hafler Trio, Incredible String Band, Exuma, King Crimson, Heldon, John Lennon/Yoko Ono, John Cage, Poogy, Ivor Cutler, Alan Stivell, sound effects records, sound sculptures/mechanical music instruments, Keith Jarrett, Mnemonists, Henry Cow and all of its offshoots, British Folk, etc..... All recordings were done over roughly a 4 year period from 1984-88. Generally speaking, the older ones used the Realistic Moog, and the newer ones used the Casio CZ 101. All songs were recorded on a four track cassette deck. This is not a garage recording; it is a basement recording!" - from the liner notes.
