Denshi blocks:

Still got mine, which has a synthesizer module that can be used for interesting experiments.
In Japan the company made professional versions for students - they were a bit bigger and more robust, but the same basic concept.
Not the one I had in mind, but very similar and definitely much cooler looking. The kits like these are still made and sold in various countries.
One of my kiddos loved SnapCircuits. Similar, but more kid friendly.

Went around the internets to find the one I thought of and while I can't find it - doesn't surprise me - it was something very much like a cross between Denshi Block (connectors) and Braun Lectron (aesthetics)
