Basta's historic compilation of early Scott electronica,
MANHATTAN RESEARCH INC., has been reissued in a tricolor 3-LP set by Music on Vinyl, under license from Basta. The newly designed package is officially available today.
MRI, first issued in 2000, contains 69 tracks recorded 1953–69 — over two hours’ worth of Scott’s groundbreaking electronic work. Forays into abstract musique concrete are heard alongside film soundtrack collaborations with a young
Jim Henson, and pan-galactic sonics seemingly beamed down from hovering UFOs. In addition,
MRI presents some of the first TV and radio commercials to feature electronic music.
