Dai primitivi all'elettronica (From primitive to electronic) is a recording made by Futuro Antico in 1980. It features a mixture of synthesized and ethnic music, highlighting the role intonation plays in music. This theme was featured in Tappo Volante, the last Aktuala album, which featured the mixture of ethnic sounds and studio processing. The track "Echo Raga" is featured on that recording as well.
They recruited a number of musicians from India and Africa for the recording. There was an initial pressing of 350 tapes made, due to lack of major label interests. After a number of bootlegs surfaced, an LP run of 1000 was pressed.
