Formed in Melbourne, Essendon Airport began as an instrumental electronic music duo in 1978 by Robert Goodge on lead guitar and David Chesworth on Wurlitzer electric piano and a home made drum machine. Both members lived in or near the suburb of Essendon, and took the name of Essendon Airport. The duo version released a four-track extended play, 'Sonic Investigations (Of the Trivial)', in May 1980 on Innocent Records. The duo described the EP's tracks, "songs which combine many of the most facile and insipid kinds of music in a redeemingly dignified manner... creating new trivia out of old. All this takes place along with a kind of pedantic fetishism for small-repetition games - the music travels in circles, spirals and solid blocks of sameness and difference." The label, Innocent Records, was co-owned by Chesworth and Philip Brophy (of performance group, → ↑ →). [SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA]
