I find much to like in how Luciano Berio handles the mixture of taped electronics and voice and other acoustic instruments.  Did you listen to any of the clips?

Indeed very nice clips, especially "visage" impresses me. Thank you for that. With Berio I always had the feeling, that he was immensely talented but for some reason seldomly realized completely satisfying works. Well with visage he seemed to achieve this.

Sure, but the ondes Martenot would not be any substitute for the lion's roar.  Like substituting the harp for an ocarina.

Although the Ondes Martenot does produce a sound like a dog barking, exploited by Jolivet in the Les Chiens d'Érèbe section of Suite Delphique.

The Ondes Martenot also has a gong stop - anyone know of any instances of its use?

A friend of mine lately recommended me the works from Laurie Spiegel, a minimalist composer that works mostly with electronic means. I find the following track from her is both, deep and accessible.

The gong diffuser? If I recall, it is in the third movement of Messiaen's Turangalila-Symphonie (near the beginning, before the part that gets real loud with the slides).
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

Stockhausen's Kurswellen and particularly Prozession, if I've spelt them right, are among the most original of electronic compositions.

Laurie Spiegel's idiom should similarly have some potential.
