no history of electronic music is complete unless the 808 and 909 (and 303, I guess) are mentioned--they are just as, if not more, important to electronic music as we know it then the sampler. Interesting timeline, though.... At 03:55 AM 6/4/2000 -0600, you wrote:

Alright, I know this is shameless self-promo for a project I worked on but I do think this might be helpful to anyone who's curious. I compiled a 3-CD box set for Ellipsis Arts called OHM-The Early Gurus of Electronic Music. There's details about it here, along with a number of interviews and articles: http://www.furious.com/perfect/ohm/index.html As it happens, when Ellipsis first came up with the idea, it was basically going to be geared to IDM people who did want to find out about some of the early stirrings of this music. Hopefully, that's what we accomplished.

This comp is as fine an intro to electronic music's research & development as I've heard. It's a near-exhaustive educational tool beneficial for neophytes who think this music began with Warp Records, the Belleville 3 or Kraftwerk, or for jaded oldsters who somehow overlooked (or, more accurately, couldn't find the works of) these seminal composers. Ellipsis Arts did a stellar job both sonically and graphically with OHM.
