Well, this is because the producer in the studio, where they recorded the "proper" Edge of Time, did not allow them to use echo machines on anything other than the vocals. Hence that very unique sound. So, allegedly, because they wanted to have some recordings with the effect, they bought their own one and recorded "Flotenmenschen 1-4" somewhere else.
There is a fantastic interview with Gabor Baskay of DOM here. For me, it's fascinating, gives an accurate image of the times and the place.

My vinyl copy has these bonus tracks on a second disc, which I only played once. Maybe I should give a listen to that one only, it sounds terrible after such a sublime album.

Soooo incredibly strange and avant tune one seriously ponders whether or not it was made by the same group. Free ticket to the mad house!

I like the album just by itself, without the bonus tracks. They are good, but not for sustaining the experience with the original recording. "Flötenmenschen" is quite nice, though  "Let Me Explain" sounds like a remix to me or just a later recording. It's dead good, though.

But seriously, guys, I listened to Edge of Time today, just lying on my bed and drowning in the sonic texture - it carried me so far! I rarely get experiences this intense with music. "Silence" is so unbelieveably hypnotic, evocative. At one point, I even had dream-like visions. As pathetic as that might sound, it really felt like a spiritual awakening. What an excellent album. Fascinating how powerful music can be.

It does sound very close to those old timey jazz recordings one hears over the radio without the artificial sweetener.

I definitely also hear a more contemporary cheese unfolding, but it isn't helping.

Never heard it, but it can't be worse than those late night Jazz songs with drippy vocals people listen to.

They changed... it's a less vintage cheese now :P

Got to agree, good to hear that.
