Oh I think I know what you mean.
Actually Bergman's "Dreams" from the time of the great "Monika" and
"Sawdust & Tinsel" has moments that are David Lynch 20 years before
"Eraserhead"

Big credit for sound design on early David Lynch films should go to
Alan Splet and Ann Kroeber.

(I'd love to have a DVD edition of "Dune" with the score removed ;-)
