splendid double CD set documenting César Bolaños - one of the leading artists of the Latin American avant-garde of the mid 20th century -  amazing early electronic work. The recordings bring together for the first time a definitive edition of his work on a double CD, the music have been digitalised directly from the original tapes and really have a fabulous clarity. So much music these days is labelled as experimental but I often I ask myself if it's creators are genuinely experimenting. That certainly is not the case here as you get a very distinct sense that the artist is really exploring the parameters of sound.
