Suzanne Ciani ‎– "Voices Of Packaged Souls" (Liquid Sound Records ‎– 001) 1970


Married to her massive Buchla synth, as made by Don Buchla,allegedly one of the founding fathers of Electronic music, Ciani spent her time at the University of California in the late sixties, exclusively making electronic compositions, one of which was "Voices Of Packaged Souls". How she got exclusive access to Don's synth is open to conjecture.Let's just say, she weren't bad looking.
This is almost sound poetry in effect, with a smattering of free form early electronic compostition,i.e.,lots of weird noises,with a bloke talking over the top in two different languages.
Its very good.Sadly she went a bit new age after this,for wich there is no excuse!
