The other day re-listening to my Telex records I found a song entitled "Peanuts" which reminds me alot of Elektric Music's "Lifestyle". I am sure Bartos did get the idea of 'sample vowels' (you know the "aaah, eeeh, brrr, faaa, mmm, laarrr, feuugh, sss, crrr, jouugh") from this track.
Mmm, if you play around with the basic ingredients of electronic music, sounds, speech, and in this case phonemes, you pretty quickly end up with things like this. The wheel is invented more than once, also in electronic music.
In addition Elektric Music's "TV" single cover is pretty close to the cover of Telex's "Twist A Saint Tropez" album. http://www.telex.be
Not terribly surprising, as both are the testbild of colour transmissions :) Rick Jansen -- Web: http://www.euronet.nl/~rja/ email: rja@euronet.nl Any spam mail sent to me results in counter measures.
