Since 1960, with the advent of musical electronics, composers and
musicians have been using ever more sophisticated machines to create
sonic material that presents innovation, color and new styles:
electro-acoustic, electro, house, techno, etc. music. The music of
Pierre Henry, Kraftwerk, Pink Floyd, Daft Punk and many others has
introduced new sounds, improbable rhythms and a unique approach to
composition and notation.
Electronic machines have become
essential: they have built and influenced the music of the most recent
decades and set the trend for future productions.
This book
explores the theory and practice related to the different machines which
constitute the universe of musical electronics, omitting synthesizers
which are treated in other works. Sequencers, drum machines, samplers,
groove machines and vocoders from 1960 to today are studied in their
historical, physical and theoretical context. More detailed approaches
to the Elektron Octatrack sequencer-sampler and the Korg Electribe 2
groove machine are also included.
