July 2025 release; glad to finally get this one up & running: a collection of both volumes of "Electronic Beds" issued privately by this Upstate New York (Morris was a professor of Electronic Music at Syracuse University; read on) collective of early Moog Modular owners, in an attempt to drum up advertising-jingle & sound-effect work. 

Issued privately on (I'm guessing) Marquisee's Media Artists Incorporated, the two color-coded LPs (issued back-to-back in 1970 & 1971, respectively) benefit from the quite-early appearance of the 900 Series instruments (one of the first feature-length "Solo Moog" sets, following on from William S. Fischer's seminal "Omen" LP issued earlier the same year; see [CP 200 CD]) - rife with the sort of keenly channeled patch designs & elaborate momentums that rival the whole Beaver & Krause / Douglas Leedy nexus. 

Reminiscent of a "Library Music" endeavour (shades of the ever-present Tod Dockstader Boosey & Hawkes run, esp. in how the brevity of each piece in no way detracts from the functionally dense compositions; see [CP 012-062 CD]) this is a fascinating window into an incredibly prescient & seldom-heard-from-since group of folks, whose work & practical ethos would otherwise be lost to time. 

As a bonus track (and bringing the single disc cleanly up over 60 minutes) I've chosen to include a piece by Composer Ward Hartenstein issued on a similar "Private Press" LP in 1974 by the Syracuse University Department of Music which was clearly made with the exact same instrument (name-checking both Morris & the Moog specifically in the liners) - enjoy!
