Now spinning at my house, the most wondrous eccentric synthpop album of my youth:

, by Orchestral Manoevres In The Dark , from 1983...ecstatic tunes about telegraphs & genetic engineering & radio waves & telescopes, layered with Eastern Bloc radio broadcasts & abstract electronics...yes!

Somerville, Massachusetts.
