The Cambridge Companion to Electronic Music
Cambridge University Press (Verlag)
978-1-107-59002-1 (ISBN)
Musicians are always quick to adopt and explore new technologies. The fast-paced changes wrought by electrification, from the microphone via the analogue synthesiser to the laptop computer, have led to a wide range of new musical styles and techniques. Electronic music has grown to a broad field of investigation, taking in historical movements such as musique concrète and elektronische Musik, and contemporary trends such as electronic dance music and electronica. The first edition of this book won the 2009 Nicolas Bessaraboff Prize as it brought together researchers at the forefront of the sonic explorations empowered by electronic technology to provide accessible and insightful overviews of core topics and uncover some hitherto less publicised corners of worldwide movements. This updated and expanded second edition includes four entirely new chapters, as well as new original statements from globally renowned artists of the electronic music scene, and celebrates a diverse array of technologies, practices and music.
Nick Collins is Reader in Composition at the University of Durham. His research interests include live computer music, musical artificial intelligence, and computational musicology, and he is a frequent international performer as composer-programmer-pianist or codiscian, from algoraves to electronic chamber music. Julio d'Escriván is Senior Lecturer at the University of Huddersfield. He researches in film and audiovisual music composition and is himself a composer of music for the screen. His work spans electroacoustic and orchestral music, electronica, film music, commercials, live coding and improvisation.
