ABOUT THIS ITEM

Public Information presents the first ever compilation of the lost work of British electronic music pioneer Frederick Charles Judd. "Electronics Without Tears" represents a mammoth undertaking between Public Information, film artist Ian Helliwell and FC Judd's widow Freda and son Peter. Trawling through his tape archives Public Information have pulled almost an hour's worth of material into a sonic whole that easily stands alongside that of Judd's better known peers, Delia Derbyshire, Daphne Oram and John Baker.

Fred pursued a career marked by innovation, invention and exploration, disseminating his new electronic music across the country through lectures, radio and writing. The 35 tracks on "Electronic Without Tears" highlight a prolific and thrilling era in Fred's life, next generation music and sound entirely made at home, with self-built equipment.
