Wonderful stuff - thanks for sharing them! (

My introduction to his work was The Electrosoniks – Electronic Music LP on Philips from 1962. I was astonished the first time I heard the track, "Moon Maid" from this album as the entire introduction was used (far more popularly) by The Ran-dells on their novelty hit, "The Martian Hop."
Here's "Moon Maid."
No sampling credit was given to Tom Dissevelt or Dick Raaymakers (here performing under the alias, Kid Baltan), and the Ran-Dells went on for decades to be hailed for their pioneering use of sine wave generators in music composition.
It's a great early example of uncleared sampling, though Buchanan & Goodman did it far more conspicuously with their break-in record, "The Flying Saucer Parts 1 & 2" - the earliest known mash-up track recorded in 1956.
