3 stars I bought this LP at a record fair and told only 300 copies made. Not sure about that but it is rare. I was recommended this album because he knew I liked this brand of electronic music.

Five years since Journey into a Dream and it's surprising how little has changed from that album. Anyways it's obvious that Schulze is a big idol for Frédy Guye, a Swiss musician from the French speaking area. He's the guy behind this one-man project who felt it was better to release this stuff as F.G. Experimental Laboratory rather than his real name although the "F.G." part are his initials. Now I'll have to say I wasn't blown away by this because it was inconsistent and the homemade production didn't help matters any. In fact all the same problems that plague Journey into a Dream. Because of no year printed anywhere on the album I was guessing it was 1977 as it felt like it was from that year, not to mention the nice '70s looking cover, only to discover the album was recorded late in 1979 and released in 1980. Don't make this high priority. Had its moments but a good example of listen before you buy.
