18. 18 Patreek Electronique 01:41

As the title suggests, the above were recorded in PG's bedroom after he left school and before he became the famous man around Surry Hills. Excellent early versions of classic Systematics material + some previously unknown like The Golden Age. Track 18 is a delightfull attempt at 50s electronic wizardry a-la Schaeffer.

These are from a live to air 2JJ session where a tape of new, unheard material was played. The announcer has great expectations of another Pulp Baby but instead gets the lovely electronics of Rural Side 3.
