    More news from the boys at the Philips Natlab, end 50-ties: older composer Henk Badings,
    engineer Dick Raaijmakers (=Kid Baltan), and engineer/jazz musician Tom Dissevelt, the enigmatic character whose original findings must have had a significant influence on Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream and Brian Eno, to mention a few.
    The title of this set is slightly misleading; at the time, the Philips company had high hopes the tunes this trio were making would become the pop music of the future. Hence, Popular Electronics…that these hopes were ill-founded may be clear from the fact that Dissevelt did NOT become a pre-Kraftwerk “rock” star. Even his catchy music proved too complex for an average listener to enjoy without intellectual effort.

    There’s a lot of interesting stuff to be found on this set. In my opinion, Badings’s electronic ballet “Kain and Abel” is his most interesting composition in the genre; and, needless to say, it was the first ballet for tape-generated music ever to be heard on the radio. Badings’s has more electronic “firsts” on his name, by the way.
    Raaijmaker’s and Dissevelt’s “Song of the Second Moon” is present in two versions. Truly a spectacular track at the time, and you’ll hear what I mean when I say the later German group Kraftwerk must have known of its existence.
    Then we have Tom Dissevelt’s complete solo album, “Fantasy in Orbit”; collaborations of Raaijmakers and Dissevelt for movie soundtracks, commercial tunes etc.
    The last cd is almost entirely dedicated to short sound materials the two of them puzzled together to coherent compositions.

    Last but not least, a word about the booklets. They are seven (!!!) in all. If a lot of Dutch avant-garde music somehow went unnoticed worldwide (except for Badings’s compositions perhaps), Dutch graphic design certainly was not, and still is not ignored. It’s top class and acknowledged as such from Milan to New York to Tokio. You’ll see what a couple of Dutch designers can do with cd booklets if they make a serious job of it. I’ve hardly seen anything that spectacular. Somehow, the men behind this managed to perfectly catch the spirit of the fifties - the ochres, the greyish blues and greens etc. - without appearing outdated. It’s real art you’re going to get here, I promise you.

    Subjects of the booklets:

    1. Introduction - History: Electronic music behind the dikes. "Popular" and "Commercial
    2. Philips Nat Lab - Natlab Goes Popular. Roelof Vermeulen. Poème Electronique
    3. Henk Badings - Badings' writings on Dutch electronic music. De Bruyn on "Kaïn & Abel
    4. Dick Raaijmakers - Dick Raaijmakers: A composer without notes. The man behind Kid Baltan
    5. Tom Dissevelt - A Jazzman becomes composer of electronic music. 12-tone techniques. Zappa vs. Dissevelt
    6. Film music - Variations Electroniques. Light; Achter de schermen. Beckaert; Fuel for the Future
    7. Track notes - Kees Tazelaar on sound restoration. Detailed track listings

    There are three posters as well. It’s been a lot of work to scan them, but I really couldn’t exclude them from the post. So, in the archives you’ll find large scans of a timeline, an authentic newspaper article from 1958, and a fragment of Dissevelt’s handwritten score for one of his compositions.

    A last note: this set is currently out of print, but will be reissued in August this year
