Silver Apples

Silver Apples created music years before similar ideas were adopted in electronic and rock music. In the 60’s, Lennon and Hendrix praised the duo. But, unsurprisingly, people where not quite ready. Their trademark was a homemade synth, consisting of 9 oscillators. Simeon Coxe played it with his hands, elbows, knees and feet (while singing) with Dan Taylor, deceased in 2005, on drums. Today, Simeon replaced his oscillators for a phrase sampler but the cacophony of beeps, buzzes and beats remains.
