Show Notes
Episode 154 Chapter 15, Elektronische Musik in Germany. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast. Playlist: ELEKTRONISCHE MUSIK IN GERMANY

More from The Holmes Archive of Electronic Music
Angine de Poitrine is a jazz-rock duo from Quebec that you have probably heard of by now. The purpose of this episode is to show some appreciation for the band by remixing many of our favorite parts of their recordings into a kind of bizarre reflection of what they do so well.
In this episode, we will hear Jazz Drums Electric—Early 1970s. This was a live drumming session played by my friend John Scarpulla back around 1971.
As I prepare a large batch of episodes to drop when the revision of my book Electronic and Experimental Music appears in August, I thought why not release a few additional episodes that have nothing to do with the book. This one is called Shortwave Crickets 2.0. Enjoy!
