"Appleton was an assistant professor of music at Dartmouth, and in 1967, became the Director of the Electronic Music Studio there. I first became aware of this artist via the single taken from this album, which contains both of my favorite cuts from it. The album can best be described as experimental electronic prog with strong psychedelic influences, and mostly strange and dischordant passages, featuring an array of wild electronic sound effects. This will appeal even more to fans of avant-gard eprog than me, as I tend to prefer just a little melody, and/or rhythm in my music. But this was certainly ahead of it's time, truly startling for 1969, and far surpassing vaguely similar output by Mort Garson. Recommended to electronic prog fans."-rateyourmusic
