These are various favourites of mine of the electronic persuasion from 1973 (I question if Zug should be here as a 1973 release), please vote for a favourite of these. If that's too hard, just list your favourites. Feel free to mention any others you like.

Oh love five and unfamiliar wth two (Mother Mallard & Rot or Zug)... not sure how I'm supposed to list the rest radically different approaches to "electronic"... but maybe lately

L'Apocalypse des Animaux
Hathor
Atem
Cyborg
Ralf & Florian

Selected Vangelis-titles has been on the rise for the last couple of years. But the list would feel wrong no matter how I placed the titles

As much the Tangerine Dream fan that I am...here's the first vote for Vangelis' L'Apocalypse des Animaux, one of my favorite albums.

This is a toss up between Atem and Cyborg for me. 

I'll go the former this time, but love both.

My lousy eyes read that as "Electronic Arts" and had flashbacks to my C-64.
Reread it, and voted for Tangerine Dream.

^ Haha, the same occurred to me when I came up with the title. I loved my C-64 and EA was a favourite of mine (played a lot of Archon). Not EA, but some of my favourite C-64 games were Impossible Mission, Impossible Mission 2, Bruce Lee and Conan.

Somehow 'Igor Wakhévitch - Hathor' has passed me by until now so I will have to search Youtube for it. HoweverI voted for TD as I still play it often.

1973 was the year Brainticket (Joel Vandroogenbroeck) went from Psych/Space/Kraut to more of a Progressive Electronic-act - and I think they did it quite magnificently with Celestial Ocean

Tossup between Tangerine Dream and Vangelis for me....I think I'll give Vangelis the edge.
