| - | "[[Franco Battiato]]'s 1970s output showed influences from electronic music. While his first albums can be called symphonic or [[progressive rock]], his work became increasingly inaccessible, incorporating [[musique concrète]] and [[serial music]]. The willingness to experiment culminated in ''[[L'Egitto prima delle sabbie]]'' in 1978, where one chord is repeated throughout each LP side. After this, he turned more commercial, eventually earning huge national success."--Sholem Stein | ||
