Does this electronic music sound very dated? it was released in 1968?

I was in undergrad conservatory then, and just learning to compose with strips of recording tape, overdubbing, and then a primitive 12 slot sequencer. We lost our minds when we got an Electrocomp synth. Got to do some good things at festivals, while the rest of the school thought we had lost our minds - really. But yes - this was considered cutting edge then. One prof had written an opera with electronic "orchestra". The rest of the program was La Vida Breve. We asked him if he had plans to electronically add to it. He demurred - said they were already "enough ions in DeFalla." I canot make up stuff like that - and maybe 4 prior in this forum will "get it".

Well, it was extraordinary for its time, but it would be considered if it was made today
