In 1982 Juan Atkins and Rick Davis as Cybrotron produced what’s credited as the first real electro track: “Clear”. In the same year a burgeoning industrial and experimental-noise band, Nocturnal Emissions, were producing something equally antecedent – yet musically unkempt in comparison. The Accumulator EP was first conceived a lifetime ago – 31 years to be exact – and it’s since found a way into the hands of Paul Purgas – one half of Emptyset – and his label We Can Elude Control. Purgas’ take on the release comes as a three-track EP, with an additional 23 minute live recording of Nocturnal Emissions playing the Brixton Ritzy on June 9th, 1983.
