Notes
Presented as a 144-page small hardback book with a CD inside each cover. Subtitled "New Plastic Sounds And Electronic Abstractions". A compilation of Scott's electronic music intended for ments or to showcase his inventions, selected after his death from the thousands of disks and tapes in the Raymond Scott archive at the University of Missouri-Kansas City libraries. As much of the music here was never intended for release, several versions of some tracks are included. All is explained within the book.

Referring specifically to this edition on CD, one gets the impression of travelling through a misaligned wormhole. -
yea something isn't right here, my copy is the 2017 version but it's on clear vinyl. actually my copy looks all scratched up on the first LP but it must've been something with how it was manufactured...the record itself is dead quiet -
I just purchased the Music On Vinyl re-issue. The sound is good. I would like to know how the sound is on the Basta 2001 press though. Did anybody make the comparison? -
-
Raymond Scott – Manhattan Research Inc. How would I explain this lp?... it's like a mixture of Ken Nordine, Aphex Twin and The Residents BUT it's not because it's the genius of Raymond Scott !
Stunning! -
Just love these crazy adverts with bleeping analogue squelching melodies.
A sound stealing paradise.
