(1974)"An Electric Storm" is the debut album by
electronic music group White Noise.White Noise had recorded the first two tracks with the intention of producing a single, but were then persuaded by Chris Blackwell of Island Records to create an entire album. At this point the group set up the Kaleidophon Studio in a flat in
Camden Town , London, and spent a year creating the next four tracks. The last track was thrown together in one day when Island demanded the completion of the album. ["An Electric Storm", sleeve notes, 1995 CD version, 3DCID 1001, Island Records]Track listing
