Psychedelic electronic music, experimental, and acid folk - a collector's grail (with only 150 copies originally released) for fans of Klaus Schulze, Terry Riley, Neu, Heldon and Silver Apples. This reissue includes a second disc of previously unreleased recordings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe story of Mar-Vista begins in northern France, in Lille, in the early 1970s, with the meeting of two music enthusiasts: Claude Cuvelier and Jean Skowron. They connected through Claude's brother. The duo gradually equipped themselves: a Mini Korg in 1972, a Yamaha synthesizer, a Farfisa organ, and even a drum machine. The home studio became their creative sanctuary. Jean worked on a 4-track Teac tape recorder, Claude on a Philips model. Each freely composed their own side of the future album, while collaborating on each other's ideas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A, led by Jean, is more rooted in the progressive electronic music of the time, influenced by Heldon, Amon Duouol, and Soft Machine. Side B, bearing more of Claude's imprint and his influences (Terry Riley, La Monte Young), is far more experimental and consists of a 22-minute trippy instrumental piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BORN BAD RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":54546833932630,"sku":"MRM-06961","price":33.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6088\/9430\/files\/6a44e2e328fe06e67ab14f9f.jpg?v=1784038491","url":"https:\/\/monorailmusic.com\/products\/mar-vista-visions-of-sodal-ye","provider":"Monorail Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
