--> For those of you un aware of the ground breaking work of a couple of dutch guys working for Phillips (yeah thats right like it says on your electric shaver) here are a couple of videos. I am posting this because i just missed my shot at hearing the most important works of Ton Bruynel performed at a festival in holland devoted to his work.

Anyway this stuff was allrecorded in the 50's :

there's a great box set out on basta records that goes over tons of the phillips stuff, uncluding raaijmakers, baltaan, dissevelt, etc called popular electroincs.

2nd song of the moon is my most prized LP

yeah i know, even put out of the time frame it is really magnificent stuff. A nice little fact: Dik Raaijmakers = Kid Baltan. When you spell it backwards it says: dik natlab / kid baltan

You could check out the docu "Room 306" its about the natlab and the Expo they did with Xenakis in Brussels, if you like natlab stuff.
