The Nonesuch Guide to Electronic Music

The classic introduction to and survey of electronic music. Most tracks are short, deconstructed pieces of songs. All work was realized on the Moog Series III Synthesiser. A pdf file of the original vinyl release booklet can be downloaded from CCM’s website.

The track duration is taken from the cover, but later reissues have other track durations for many of the tracks.
