This is from the first season of the 1963 sci-fi hit THE OUTER LIMITS. Composer (Dominic Frontiere) had engineers construct an oscillator controlled by a dial that sounds like a theremin for the part I'm playing over. This was called an ONAFETS (the show's producer's name backwards.)
Wo, sorry if that is Mr. Frontiere. I finally realized why I was always hooked on the old OL - it's the music. I watch the shows all the time.

I love everything OL, especially the music, but as mr peterman would say, "who are you?"

Sweet performance of a lovely piece of music. It tempts me to buy a Theremin... if for no other reason than to have fun doing covers of Frontiere's OL music!
BTW, Frontiere used an electric violin for his Outer Limits scores, including for the piece you performed here. The Onafets contraption was used for bass tonalities and drones in the "Nightmare" ep. Cheers and good luck with your music. :)

Wonderfully composed; with elements of mystery, passion, and erieness magnificently combined into one.

@spacepatrolman Yes that was the movie with William Shatner. I also agree that the music is beautiful.

I so loved his music from the Outer Limits. I bought the soundtrack from Crescendo GNP long ago. I was also delighted to find that they used this music and a few other pieces by Frontiere for the Esperanto based movie "Incubus".
