Sky Yen [CD]

Two years before he co-founded Buzzcocks, a teenage Pete Shelley recorded Sky Yen in March 1974 using an oscillator he had built himself while studying electronics in Bolton. Running it into a two-track tape recorder with echo and effects, he made two long pieces of tones, drones, feedback and noise, inspired by Tangerine Dream, Cluster, Kraftwerk, Can and Faust. Shelley finally issued it on his own Groovy Records label in 1980.

CD edition, in a matt-laminate digipak with the original cover design by Pete Shelley and Malcolm Garrett.
