Tomorrow's Fashions: Library Electronica 1972-1987 / Various (Vinyl)

Compiled by Bob Stanley, "Tomorrow's Fashions" varies from advertising jingles and TV themes to space exploration and gorgeous, beatless ambience. Though it's 40-to-50 years old there's a real freshness to this music. Older jazz players Brian Bennett, John Cameron, Alan Hawkshaw and others seized the chance to operate a synth; younger pups including John Saunders and Monica Beale were simply intrigued by the new technology being wheeled into the studios. There's a tangible sense of adventure.
