History of Electronic Music

History of Electronic Music

You all thought I was dead, didn’t you?
Anyway, here’s what the title promises – samples of electronically produced music from 1970 to 2013. This was based off of one of Tinnitis’s videos on the history of recorded music.
I apologize for some audio problems near the beginning. I also apologize for any inaccuracies in this video in which I am not aware of. And finally, I apologize if your favorite song wasn’t included. (Come to think of it, I really should have included some LFO.)

All songs in this video belong to their respective owners. I claim no ownership in these song clips.
