Great writeup!

So many people don't know anything about the history of electronic music, or how far back it goes. I've seen people online who think Kraftwerk invented it in the 70s. I appreciate you diving into the origins.

Early electronic music is super fascinating. You can hear echoes of those early artists from nearly a century ago in lots of modern ambient, industrial and experimental electronic genres.

Yeah I was surprised too. It's amazing what you can find when you start researching. Mind you, finding a book on the history was not easy. No, I do NOT want to know how to play it! No, I do NOT want to know how to fix it! No I do NOT want engineering schematics for it. God damn it!

Think yer ma would have allowed you to have a telharmonium in your bedroom when you were a kid?
