  1. If you want to skip to certain timelines of Electronic music, I have made a list of labelled timestamps.

    0:00 to 4:27– Very experimental concrete music and some songs with actual melodies.
    4:28 to 9:46 – Early dance music and some experiments. House is born**
    9:47 to 14:55 – Really well known late 80s and 90s hits, consisting of House, eurodance and drum and bass.***
    14:56 to 19:50 – Noughties house, Big Room house, Trance, new genres and emerging EDM artists.*
    19:51 to End- Emerging EDM artists becoming more popular and more genres are created. House is still very popular.**

    **The most popular artists of our time include Marshmello, David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Avicii and Swedish House Mafia.

    Dubstep is created in the early 2010's
    (sorry I didn't include this haha)
    Artists such as skrillex, skream etc. are pioneers of this genre

    *In the 2000s, Hard trance and hardcore club music was at its peak, dying out by the time 2010 started. Meanwhile, a lot of house was being made by the likes of David Guetta, Eric Prydz, Benny Benassi etc. A lot of these artists are still making music today.

    * Some creators of classic eurodance made in the early 90s are Snap!, 2unlimited, Technotronic etc.

    ****A lot of creators were making music during this period, such as Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys and Donna Summer

  2. Early electronic music (1930s-about 74) is a fascination of mine. I love the interesting sounds, and the way they were able to transpose classical music to the instruments. It’s quite eerie some of it, but overall it’s pretty neat.

  3. 1977 / 1992, esos quince años fueron la era dorada de los sintetizadores y de la música electrónica. La década del 80 fue el paraíso de la buena música hecha con instrumentos de teclas.

  4. Great selection, but the EQ is all over the place. I had to adjust the volume through the whole video. Some songs I couldn't hear at all. Just a small gripe. Really cool video though. I thought electronic music came much later than the 20's. I heard there was a debate who did it first. It was between German ocliator music and the French with music concrète in the 50's. Microsoft Encarta in the 90's, right? Thanks for the lesson. Not only that, I got to reminisce a little bit. I really enjoyed it.

  5. 2 things i wish this video included (and the historical reason why):
    1. Daisy Bell (the first song that was sang by a computer)
    2. The Flying Saucer (one of the earliest examples of plunderphonic sampling)

  6. missing Terry Riley, Klaus Schulze, The Residents, Amon Tobin, The Orb, Orbital, Atari Teenage Riot, Portishead, Nine Inch Nails, The Magnetic Fields, Steve Roach, Derrick May, Autechre, The Books, Michael Hoenig, Constance Demby. Get a grip! Never let a fan write a history of music smh…
