♪♫ Women-Made Electronica Playlist
The history of electronic music arguably starts with the patenting of the theremin in 1928, and Clara Rockmore was there from its inception to champion the instrument as both an important technological and artistic advancement. This mix highlights the brilliant, creative women who make (and made) electronic music and their innovations in techniques, programs, and tools to make new sounds possible. Best with headphones.

♪♫ The Gold and the Silver Dream (1971-1982) - A Tribute to Daft Punk's 'Random Access Memories'
A tribute to Daft Punk's wonderful 'Random Access Memories,' tracks inhabiting the same warm, wonderful universe of funky, melancholic robots skirting around the edges of the discotheque, alternately wondering what life's about and deciding it's all about forgetting to worry what it's all about. Space disco, library funk, sophisticated rhythmic orchestrations, savvy art-rock, psych-poppers and proggers gone dancefloor, and a singer-songwriter or two--all meeting in those blissful sonic years 1971-1982 from which Daft Punk brewed their latest potions. Created for the Musicophilia blog, http://musicophilia.wordpress.com, mixed by Soundslik.
