Mort Garson (1924 - 2008) was a Canadian composer, bandleader and songwriter; he was a classically trained musician and electronic researcher, started his career in the 1960s and was among the first to experiment with the big Moog synthesiser. He was mainly known for his original sci-fi space age soundscapes. In 1967, he recorded his first album Cosmic Sounds which features sonic analog based compositions. Released in 1969, Electronic Hair Pieces contains supernatural electronic moods, pulsating hypnotic effects and moving synthesised textures.

 

Mort Garson's musical universe is close to Cecil Leuter and Jean-Jacques Perrey's kitsch moog pop soundscapes but within more mystical-cerebral-adventurous proportions, where lysergic electronic modulations meet dark epic timbres.

Failed simulation of reality

 

Roger Davy is a French session guitarist and composer that made several library albums in the 70's, his most characteristic trait being the cosmic guitar twang that graces all of his albums. His signature guitar just glides along and fits perfectly with all of the enchanting arrangements primarly made with all the electronic trickery coming from the seventies. 

 

Albert Assayag is a French (born in Morocco, 1938) songwriter, pianist, accordionist, arranger and conductor; also works as a musical and artistic guide. He began as a musical arranger and composer of music for television, notably France Inter and Télé Monte Carlo.

Óscar Ichazo (1931 - 2020) was a Bolivian philosopher and the originator of Integral Philosophy. In 1968, Ichazo founded the Arica School. 

The Arica School, also known as the Arica Institute (which is its incorporated educational organization) or simply as Arica, is a Human Potential Movement group founded in 1968 by Ichazo. The school is named after the city of Arica, Chile, where Ichazo once lived and where he led an intensive months-long training in 1970 and 1971 before settling in the United States (NY), where the Arica Institute (incorporated in 1971) has since been headquartered. The Arica School can be considered "A body of techniques for cosmic consciousness-raising and an ideology to relate to the world in an awakened way.".

 

However, the collective also produced several musical albums in the US (presumably to increase awareness of the school), this resulted in the release of four totally eclectic masterpieces: Arica & Audition (1972), Heaven (1973) and Music In The Nine Rings (2002); crazy spaced out folk, progressive, meditative and psychedelic jazz sounds with some exquisite moments, ripe for sampling.
