Evolution of Electronic Music (1929 - 2019)

[@nx_br4ndy459]

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

[@Petersouza2001]

We've been in a new era since the mid to late 2010s with the wonky trap and synth pop music, i think the music's notes are ridiculous. People like nora an pure and pertit biscuit sound nice.

[@dwnlw5876]

Thank you so much🥺

[@PeterRebro]

Very good timeline of electronic music, but for me missing Pet Shop Boys, Bros, KLF.

[@casualsuede]

@@PeterRebro more than pet shop boys, whom I love, was the omission of New Order's bizarre love triangle, which heavily influenced techno music and blue monday, which was the best selling Electronica single for decades in Europe. The song they did list (vanishing point, which was actually a bside) had very little impact on the dance music scene. They also barely touch on classic 80's house.

[@kode-man23]

It's fascinating to think of an era where putting any sort of percussion to electronic music was considered a more alien concept than the music itself. Think about it, there is no equivalent by today's standard, nothing that is so experimental, so on the very outer fringes of comprehension that we don't immediately try to combine it with anything and everything else in existence. Imagine anything, anything at all existing today, and going 50 years (!) without something as simple as drums being added to it.

[@mrscotti3224]

@Baba Yaga I don’t think it’s creepy I just think it’s pretty interesting to see how much electronic songs have come from analog sythenizers and huge complex machines to make noises and obviously real tunes made would be very very hard to make but as the tech they used became more advanced the easier a actual melody became to make with for example when MOOG came out it was revolutionary in electronic music and made it much easier and before the 70s you had to be very very skilled to do the tunes and it’s got to be perfect for it to sound ok so a lot of these tunes in the beginning where they made people think rather then dance and once the 70s and 80s came it changed a lot

[@qq7506]

[@GryphonWahle]

This list started off really well with the early pioneering sounds and techniques that birthed the genre. Once it got to the 1990's, with the exception of Aphex Twin and Daft Punk, the list went just straight pop dance jams. Which don't get me wrong, they slap and evolved, but electronic music itself went many other sonic directions other than chart-topping dance hits during that time and present.

[@2112jonr]

Agreed. It split into numerous shards that are difficult to track even 25 years later. I'd add Orbital to that early 90s list too. But generally, music in the early 90s was grim.

[@ChrisMezzolesta]

Agreed - when it went from 'new' to 'expected'/'usual', the bloom came off the rose. The 1969 album "MOOG" by Dick Hyman is one that took some thought & knowledge to put together, as an example...

[@Poorschedriver]

yes for the majority, but then there's Deadmau5 who sometimes has 5 different genres on one album.

[@b1nary_f1nary]

Yeah I think this was just meant to catalog popular electronic music

[@lawrencejelsma8118]

The list completely missed the favorite pop tune of the 1970s E.L.O. "Evil Woman." Many "Synth" music overlooked like Gary Numan's "Cars." Vangellis won music score Academy Award in "Chariots of Fire" in the 1980s.

[@savajesus8614]

So we went from scary-weird noises to a major hit like I Feel Love, wow so revolutionary honestly

A total commune of prog rock, experimental, Synthpop, disco, what have you. Now on the radio The 80s: More fun with everything, now add MTV and the rise of hip hop and house The 90s: Mostly for the club, touching on pop, seen more as a genre rather than a medium The Millennium: Still dancing to the beat in new ways The 2010s: Electronic is as diverse as it was in the 70s, with the addition of AI The future: the robots won't replace us.

[@UTopia-eg7gm]

Yes, but imagine how little means they had to make electronic music, no organs, no keyboards, no samplers, no computers, just very primitive radiolamps and sound effects. Back then it was really difficult to make electronic sounds, electronic music they could only dream of. And the sounds where spooky and modern which matches with the developments in those days: technology, space discovering it came to a new level, bit by bit. People were anxious to know what future would bring, but a bit scary at the same time for the unknown.

[@evapalma9899]

@@UTopia-eg7gm i support that. Like early films from the 1890s might seem creepy today, but imagine how impressive that must have been at the time, theatregoers thought they lived in a futuristic dreamland, much like early listeners of electronic music.

Cabe resaltar que el tercer género electrónico del EDM (el Electro) fue concretado e iniciado por uno de los integrantes de YMO...el maestro Ryuichi Sakamoto bajo sus producciones independientes de 1980 (Lexington Queen Wareheat B-2 Unit y el grial del sonido Electro el tema Riot In Lagos). Kraftwerk en 1977 copia el HI-NRG & Synthpop de Giorgio Moroder para el The Man Machine (1978) y en 1980 Kraftwerk copia las producciones de Ryuichi Sakamoto (1980) para el Computer World de 1981.

i'm glad i have no restrictions and listen to everything, both modern and classical music and have no obsessions/comfort zone around any genre

[@josiahferrell5022]

@@CamelliaFlingert I definitely have a bit of an affinity for synth stuff, in general, that's why I'm watching this video, but otherwise, I am completely in agreement.

[@experimentalme7438]

I also think classical music is unique and also heavy metal and jazz and rock are unique.

​@@CamelliaFlingert It's sad when people are too obcessed with genres. I'm tired of hearing people complaining that today's music sucks and older music is better, that they were born in the wrong generation, blah blah. I'm also tired of people claiming that they're modern people who appreciate technology and are not stuck in the past so they don't care about old songs, as people who listen to old songs are, according to them, "traditional", "nostalgic", "stuck in the past", and "close minded" to newer sounds. These sort of complaints have always happened and possibly will always exist. It specially annoys me when they like or dislike a song because of the genre. Music that someone likes and dislikes can be found in every genre, and if that's not their case, then their music taste is stereotypical. People should listen to the song first and then figure out its genre and the year it was released, not the other way around. This doesn't happen with just music. It happens with movies, books, games, whatever. People judge the content before consuming it, instead of the other way around.

Kraftwerk changed everything and continues inspiring so many artists nowadays.

[@cymen1]

They changed nothing, they only made it commercial to a larger audiance. It were Tom Dissevelt and Dick Raaijmakers that inspired many great artist such as Kraftwerk and David Bowie.

[@MrReyRomantico]

I am glad to have seen Dr.Who here... there is a whole short doc you can find on KZbin about that one... one is missing though: Knight Rider could have had a place, especially with so many that had a mix of electronic and non electronic instruments. Thanks for the upload though, I knew we had electric guitars as far back as 1929, but not electronic music. Learned something new today!

Love him or hate him, you cannot ignore Gary Numan opening the floodgates for electronic music. Whether Are Friends Electric or Cars it was a major surge forward.

Gary Numan is a huge influence

[@chockergram]

I'd put Sparks with Giorgio Moroder ahead of Numan. He always seemed a bit late to a party that was already in full swing.
