Electric Portraits

Paul Asbury Seaman This was fun. “3 a.m. at the Border of Okefenokee Swamp” is one of my favorite TD songs! (From STRATOSFEAR). “Airport Runway” (and the plane taking off at the end) may be a reference to LE PARK. And although I can’t connect all of them, it's fun to imagine that each track here, including the album name, is a play on a classic TD title. A nice change of pace and a bit of educational nostalgia. Full marks! Favorite track: Suburban Fog.

thomas mathie I am biased and I call that out immediately ... but I do think this is an album worthy of Dave’s visage on the cover.

This album is an absolute delight ... and possibly my favourite “genre” for Cousin Silas to work in.

about

This will be the first 'proper' electronic type album on the Emporium label. When I say electronic, I basically mean sequencers and 'spacey' sounds, ala TD and KS. It's also a homage to those early days when I began to discover music like this way back in the mid 70s.
