A brief history of electronic music mapped out to the circuit board of a theremin, which is widely regarded as one of the first electronic musical instruments, is available at Dorothy.
The Electric Love Blueprint celebrates over 200 inventors, innovators, composers and musicians who have been pivotal to the evolution of electronic music from the invention of the earliest known sound recording device in 1857 to the present day. Key pioneers featured include Léon Theremin, Bob Moog, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Brian Eno, Kraftwerk, John Cage, New Order and Aphex Twin.
The 60 x 80cm metallic silver screen print includes areas dedicated to specific genres such as the electroacoustic Musique Concrète, Krautrock, Synth Pop, Acid House and Electronica. There are also references to the experimental BBC Radiophonic Workshop and innovating record labels Mute and Warp. Buy here:
For me; it was and is, Jean Michel Jarre ( and friends)
I hope so too, I see the French and German pioneers there
The document looks fascinating, but I wonder if it includes Tom Dissevelt and Kid Baltan, who were among the earliest innovators of electronic music. Their release, “Song of the Second Moon”, in the late 1950s, was amazing.
