■ Release Notes:
An Electric Storm is justly renowned
among techno boffins as one of the first
albums to fuse pop and electronic music
before the advent of the Moog
synthesizer. But you don't have to be
versed in the language of sine waves and
oscillators to enjoy this mostly
delightful and hugely inventive album.
For although the White Noise were almost
exclusively composed of virtuoso knob
twiddlers and tape splicers moonlighting
from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop,
luckily they were no slouches when it
came to penning a decent tune.
There's also anarchic humor at play on
the manic "Here Come the Fleas," which
contains more edits in its two minutes
than the whole of Sgt. Pepper's.Yet it's
the retro-futurist textures that still
grab the ear most. These are sounds that
will be familiar to anyone who knows the
soundtrack of Forbidden Planet or the
early series of Doctor Who, but they had
never before been deployed in the service
of pop music, nor have they since. And
whereas the Moog would supplant all of
these primitive, time-consuming
techniques of sound generation and
manipulation within the year, it also
destroyed much of electronic music's
spirit of adventure in the process. How
could you boldly go where no man had gone
before when your sound universe was
suddenly overlaid by tram lines and route
maps? So although most of the songs that
make up the first half of An Electric
Storm are pretty much your standard-issue
polite British psychedelia (the somewhat
embarrassing United States of America-
style orgy of "My Game of Loving" aside),
the way they're dressed up still sounds
innovative decades later.
Sometimes songs dissolve into bleeps,
whooshes, and gurgles that hurtle between
your speakers, but compared to the
extended guitar and organ solos that were
common currency at the time, they are the
very essence of restraint. That said,
restraint was put to the sword on the
final two tracks, the 12-minute "The
Visitations" and the seven-minute "The
Black Mass: An Electric Storm in Hell."
The former is a decidedly spooky "Leader
of the Pack"-style drama with a
supernatural twist. The biker, having
departed this life, attempts to make one
last attempt to cross over and console
his grieving beloved, only to fall
agonizingly short. If you can suspend
your disbelief -- and persuade yourself
that the biker's departing spirit doesn't
sound like a cappuccino machine -- it's
spine-tingling stuff that you won't dare
listen to with the lights off. Which is
more than can be said for the concluding
track, a would-be satanic jam session
botched together in a hurry to meet
Island's suddenly imposed deadline.
Note: This is the digitally remastered
reissue of this ambitious 1969 album.
