Electronic Concept Orchestra

Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, The Electronic Concept Orchestra was formed to create an electronically musical approach to pop and rock music that is as fresh as Walter Carlos' efforts in the classical area with "Switched On Bach." Although many "spaced-out" effects can be created with electronic music, from 1969 to 1973 they have made an effort to put melody, music, and "good vibes" first and novelty gimmicks second. To that end, the efforts of Eddie Higgins as performer and arranger have been invaluable. Well known as a jazz pianist, Eddie has entered the world of electronic music with a real feeling for the fusion of the pop and electronic fields. With the creation of the Electronic Concept Orchestra Moog Synthesizers become a pop instrument of amazing versatility. Read more on Last.fm.
