Subject: Re: [motm] classic synth records

Speaking of Walter Carlos, I rented A Clockwork Orange (1971) last
week. Fantastic soundtrack of classical music a la Moog. There is a
scene where Alex is getting beaten up by his old droogies, now cops, and
every hit of the nightstick is accompanied by an incredible crashing
sound. All I could imagine was a reverb tank being drop kicked. So add
A Clockwork Orange soundtrack to your classic recordings list.
