- After a few attempts by individuals to create 'electronic' instruments such as the Trautonium and the Theremin in the early 20th century, a more systematic approach to the creation of a new electronic sound world took off after the Second World War, on three remarkably different tangents, and with very distinct influences on the electronic music of today.
ABOUT LIEVEN BERTELS:

Ten years later this lecture is now a piece of youtube history. I hope it will live on to future generations in some form. Today is new years eve of 2023. I will honor this history lecture by coming back each decade. I am 50 years old. I love early electronic music. If you do to I am recommending Madis and Kebu who is inspired by that first synthesizer music and they are both fantastic musicians.
Bruse Haack should be on that list!
His musical instruments where beyond and very advanced!
Great lecture; very informative. There is a category of popular early electronic music you negated to mention. Chiptunes from Commodore 64, Nintendo, and classic video games scores.
Correct!! & Freeware TRACKER software etc
That was a very nice historical survey of electronic music, thanks for sharing it!
fantastic lecture - thank you for this and for making this public/freely accessible!
Thank you so much for the lecture! I could finally figure out the 50s experimentations.

I got you in my music education files ✔️
Thanks a lot for sharing. Greetings from Mexico
Regarding Louis and Bebe Barron and their tape recorder: "The couple married in 1947 and moved to New York City. Louis' cousin, who was an executive at the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (3M), gave the newlyweds their first tape recorder as a wedding gift."
What a great lecture, thanks so much!

really good talk, but why do you criticize hip hop using samples and praise aphex twin? i don't see a difference
Umm.
I lost him when he said “he/she” in reference to a trans woman and that hip-hop artists are “stealing” other people’s music…cool lecture but it really didn’t age well lol
To whoever decided to reply to this comment and later go on to delete their reply: I never said this man was a monster lol, I know it's a lecture about history...this lecture covers topics within my field of study.
