The tapes also contained many examples of Meek composing songs and experimental sound techniques. At the time Barrington-Coupe was working at SAGA records in Empire Yard Holloway Road for Major Wilfred Alonzo Banks and it was the Major who provided the finance. That year Meek conceived wrote and produced an "Outer Space Music Fantasy"' concept album I Hear A New World with a band called Rod Freeman & the Blue Men.

Meek's concept album I Hear a New World is regarded as a waterJoe Meekd in modern music for its innovative use of electronic sounds. It also spent five weeks atop the UK singles chart with Meek receiving an Ivor Novello Award for this production as the "Best-Selling A-Side" of 1962. Robert George "Joe" Meek (5 April 1929  – 3 February 1967) was a pioneering English record producer and songwriter.
