 | | Italian pop artist Franco Battiato spent a long number of years in the 70s creating an unparalleled stream of albums that seemed to flirt with just about every genre mentioned here so far, from the strange electronic and folk experimentations of Foetus to the later minimalist electronic works of the mid to late 70s. |
| | Pioneers in this field are largely Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, and Gong, and the field is alive today led by Ozric Tentacles and including bands like Tribe of Cro, Quarkspace, Ship of Fools, Melting Euphoria, Hidria Spacefolk and Escapade. |
| | 70s label Hexagone published albums with a similar musical ethic including those by Malicorne, Dan Ar Bras, and La Bamboche, some of which incorporated symphonic rock, jazz and a capella styles. |
