Lots of interesting-looking stuff on folkways:

I do find it kind of silly that I'm trying to make electronic music with cheap junk, toys and obsolete videogame stuff but end up spending many times the value of them in cables, electronic components and flash cartridges etc. smile

Double post oops so I'll also suggest the several "An Anthology of Noise and Electronic Music" complilations, loads of interesting stuff. I'm always amazed to hear something that sounds like it was made yesterday but is actually cooked up in some university music lab in 1955 or whatever smile

Also it's not as old as we're talking about, but in terms of ahead of unexpectedly it's time electronic music the Terminator soundtrack (the original movie only) is worth revisiting. Some super-80s sounds of course but, at times it sounds pretty much like something Warp records could have released in the mid 90s smile

Morton Subotnick's 'Silver Apples of the Moon' is pretty amazing.

Also the FORBIDDEN PLANET soundtrack is astonishing and way ahead of its time.

I have to admit that picture is a bit of a cheat ^___^;;; - I do definitely intend to record + perform some stuff with ZX thru Death Metal (and will post when I do) but in that photo the DM is actually going INTO the spectrum! o_o; - i was using it to boost the signal from my imac which was apparently not loud enough for the spectrum to load from!?! :-S Weird. I was kind of amazed it works. Yep it will be pure beeper, I've not quite decided exactly what I'm going to use, found some interesting software but might actually try and program my own as i've not found anything quite noisy/chaotic enough for my purposes. But I haven't typed a line of spectrum basic since like 1991 so we'll see haha.
