I'd be interested to hear what people who *do* get a lot out of B12 and
other "very" iDM-y artists think about them... what exactly are you

"The Art of Elecronic Music" ... this is a collection of articles and
interviews that appeared in Keyboard magazine (US) in the mid 70's through
the early 80's. The interviews with Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream are
particularly interesting; there are also features on Kraftwerk, Wendy
Carlos, and other electronic pioneers, as well as the origins of synthesized
sound.
