This is the first album playable at any speed. Being all-instrumental music, there are no voices to affect the realism of the orchestrations. Thus the album becomes a collection of electronic concertos, each movement being defined by the speed of the turntable. A turntable with speeds of 33, 45 and 78 RPM, creates a different ratio within the pieces, yet maintains a familiar melodic drama.
Saying all this, the record was recorded to produce the sound you hear at 45 RPM and any compilations using tracks taken from this record reflect this.
