Notes

First released as an LP in the Netherlands under the title The Fascinating World Of Electronic Music, probably in 1962.
First released as an LP in the US as Song Of The Second Moon: The Sonic Vibrations Of Tom Dissevelt & Kid Baltan.
Subsequent releases have variously utilised all three titles, and it also formed the core of the CD collection Popular Electronics: Early Dutch Electronic Music From Philips Research Laboratories (1956 - 1963).

Seven of the eight tracks had previously been issued between 1958 and 1961 on Electronic Music. Please use the Compilation tag.

Track order and song titles differ between the "Fascinating World.." and "Electronic Music"/"Song Of The Second Moon" releases:
A1 - Song Of The Second Moon remained unchanged
A2 - Drifting = Moon Maid
A3 - Mechanical Motions = The Ray Makers
A4 - Vibration = The Visitor From Inner Space
B1 - Whirling = Sonik Re-Entry = Sonic Re-Entry
B2 - Syncopation = Orbit Aurora
B3 - Intersection = Twilight Ozone
B4 - Pianoforte remained unchanged.
