Mort Garson was a pioneer of electronic music and an early adopter of the moog synthesiser, which he solely used to compose the plant friendly album Plantasia from 1976. The album was originally released as a promotional item for customers of Mother Earth nursery on Melrose Ave in Los Angeles. With the tagline, “Warm earth music for plants…and the people that love them”, the album made its way into the homes of many a green thumbed indoor plant enthusiast on the west coast. Almost 50 years later, the cult of Plantasia continues to thrive and grow, much like the photosynthesising friends it was composed for!
