— The Group That Time Forgot
Formed in 1969 between West Berlin and London, Chromatic Aberration was a duo of engineer Anselm Vortek and poet Marla Dreyfuss, With hand-built oscillators, early Moog modules, and tape loops, they created sounds that seemed impossible for their era, Their performances blended fractured rhythms, spoken word through vocoders, and eerie harmonies resembling future IDM, Audiences of the early ’70s dismissed them as noise, too abstract for the rock or kraut scenes, Yet fragments of their limited cassette releases resurfaced decades later, astonishing listeners with their strange prescience, What the world heard as malfunction in 1970 now feels prophetic: glitches, half-time beats, mechanical choirs, Though forgotten in their time, Chromatic Aberration is remembered as a ghost of electronic music’s future—an echo proving that innovation can arrive years before culture is ready
