レビュー

Review: Electronic and Experimental Music: Pioneers in Technology and Composition (Media and Popularculture)

ユーザー レビュー  - Harry Doble - Goodreads

Infinitely useful, though it is largely rooted in academia and passes on developments like krautrock and industrial music resigning them to mere shades of their influence. Still, finding a more comprehensive overview will be exceptionally difficult.
