It's been a while so here's another fantastic electronic artist with a bit of craic, the mighty French master of 'wonk-tronica' Roger Roger (aka Cecil Leuter, Archie Gun or Eric Swan) [image]http://www.rfsoc.org.uk/photos/roger_roger.jpg[/image] Like most early pioneers he has a great discography ( including his aliases) which i am still enjoying discovering. Again he was from a strong classical training background, moving towards creating innovative work in film, television and radio throughout his life. He also worked with childhood friend and fellow electronic-urchin, the fantastic Nino Nardini. He was one of the first, along side two fantastic artists i will cover later, Pierre Henry and Jean-Jacques Perrey to experiment with the Moog synth. So far, like Bruce Haack, he has that sense of fun and childish wonky-mischief that makes him a joy listening to.
