PAUL NELSON Vortex SEALED LP og 1981 private synth electronica ARP Moog Vocoder Shipping Info Description &since Scarce private SEALED Moog ARP electronica lp: PAUL NELSON - VORTEX - on Optiman Systems, Inc., OPT-1001, the original release, still factory-sealed in cellophane; 7 tracks; "this album was realized, conceived, programmed, recorded and produced by Paul Nelson from 8/30/80 to 3/25/81"; probably released in 1981. The artist is from Portland, Oregon, and the liner notes say that he uses the ARP 2600, Mini Moog, and Oberheim 8 Voice Polyphonic synthesizers; sequencers include Roland Analog, Oberheim DS2 Digital, Sequential Circuits Digital. Back cover art is awesome. I have seen several old auctions for this that say he uses the VOCODER on several tracks, and also that it was a limited edition of 1000 copies (but it does not say that on the back cover). Here is a quote from a review: "The tracks are a mix of semi-poppy uptempo songs with vocoderized vocals over mechanized electronic beats, and spacy instrumental ambient soundscapes, at different times reminding me of Kraftwerk, Devo, Bruce Haack, Jean Michelle Jarre, Cecil Leuter, Tangerine Dream, Giorgio Moroder, Autechre, and video game music, definitely foreshadowing the early electro heroes who gained popularity in the months and years after this lp was released like Man Parrish and Cybotron. All in all, a nice lost obscurity missing link stewing together new wave, synth pop, electro, prog synth, ambient, etc".
CONDITION: MINT (cellophane and jacket are super-clean).
