Dirk Jan Muller has had an interest in '70's German underground music since
1988 and his passion for bands such as Amon Duul, Tangerine Dream, Nektar,
Neu and Can resulted in his collection synthesisers, keyboards, amps and
various pieces of '70's musical equipment. From his home studio he released a
couple of underground tapes of electronic music which began to circulate on
the cassette network ("Octopus's Garden and "Time Signals") until in 1992 a
UK company called Electronic Dreams released "Time Signals". Meanwhile
Dirk began work on the debut Electric Orange album bringing in a number of
other musicians and a wealth of instrumentation such as hammond organ, sax,
flute, assorted percussion, samples and electric guitars and By March 1994 the
German underground electronic label "Manikin" had released the album on
CD. Called simply "Electric Orange" it was a stunning mixture of early '70s
Kraut Rock and psychedelic space rock styles but with a totally modern sound,
updating the genre with new technology and production values. The album
rapidly became a sought after release, however it was very badly distributed
and seemed to be doomed to cult status, that is until Delerium records
discovered it and purchased the rights. Even 30 years later, the Electric
Orange sound is still fascinating and it was long overdue to finally release this
jewel on vinyl.
