An all-Moog electronic masterpiece composed by Juilliard-trained virtuoso Mort Garson—widely celebrated for his arrangement work on the Apollo 11 moon landing broadcast, film scores, and commercial music.

Subtitled "warm earth music for plants... and the people who love them", the album emerged against the backdrop of 1970s counterculture and the mystical belief that plants possess consciousness and feelings. Originally distributed as a promotional giveaway for purchases of house plants or mattresses, Plantasia has since attained legendary status as a pioneering precursor to ambient, modular synth, and video game music. Beyond its lush, soothing melodies lies a fascinating, slightly unsettling nuance deeply tied to American subculture.

This 50th Anniversary edition, released by Brooklyn’s Sacred Bones Records, fully embraces the album's botanical concept:

• Pressed on 100% recycled eco-green vinyl housed in a recycled jacket using bio-based shrink wrap.

• Features a plantable download card embedded with wildflower seeds.

• Includes a complete faithful reproduction of the original booklet—a delightfully quirky, pseudo-scientific guide filled with humorous and earnest tips on how to care for your plants.

A truly immersive sound installation in vinyl form, bridging music, design, and environmental consciousness.
