Expand your record collection with these classic vinyl LP releases: Silver Apples' debut LP and their follow-up Contact.
Formed in 1967 as a psychedelic electronic duo featuring Dan Taylor on drums and Simeon on a homemade synthesizer consisting of 12 oscillators (and an assortment of sound filters, telegraph keys, radio parts, lab gear, and a variety of second-hand electronic junk), Silver Apples quickly gained a reputation as New York’s leading underground musical expression.
These two albums, with their pulsating rhythmic beats and electronic use, laid the groundwork for what would become “Krautrock.” Their self-titled LP, Silver Apples, released in 1968, remains an innovative and revolutionary album. Their highly influential sound has influenced countless bands, including Stereolab, Beastie Boys, Blur, and more.
