In 2016, after reissuing two Bruce Haack albums, Haackula and Electric Lucifer Book II, Telephone Explosion began speaking with Ted Pandel (Bruce’s lifelong friend and business partner) about working on the 1970 masterpiece The Electric Lucifer. It turned out there was another matter that he wanted to discuss: finding a final resting place for the Bruce Haack archive.

We were shown test-pressings of The Electric Lucifer board mixes from his Columbia studio sessions, countless pieces of written music, a large number of personal photos, an invitation from Raymond Scott inviting Bruce to play his newly created Electronium instrument (now owned by Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh), poems, press clippings, and, most importantly, a heavy-duty shelf containing 213 reel-to-reel tapes. 

All of the chosen material on The Preservation Tapes is unreleased, and has only been heard by a handful of people. 

The Bruce Haack archive is now resting in the Provincial Archives of Alberta, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Brooklyn, NY
The evolution of dance music as experienced by Brooklynite Frank Ramos. While spinning a diverse collection of music (much of which has never been heard on the radio before), Frank shares his personal insight, which spans over 40 years: the various styles of dance music, the important DJs and clubs, the social, cultural, historical and beyond- all as it occurred in New York City.

At a young age, Frank Ramos was introduced to music through radio and live TV performances by R&B, Latin and rock artists. By the age of 14, he was buying records, by 17 he was going to clubs and concerts, and all the while he was expanding his musical tastes: jazz, funk, classical, film scores, reggae, Afro-pop, house, hip-hop and more. He also has amassed an equally diverse collection of music related books and magazines, which, coupled with his personal experiences, have contributed to his vast knowledge of music.
