"A documentary tracing the evolution of electronic music by cutting back and forth between avant garde composers, Kraftverk's innovative synthesizer drones, Giorgio Moroder's Euro-discos, Afrika Bambaataa's electro-funk and Prodigy's worldwide stardom. "Modulations" celebrates, replicates and illuminates the nomadic drift of the post-human techno sound." It's got loads of electronic music producers on it, including some 313 names.. Fascinating viewing cos it's a proper look at the avant-garde origins of electronic music - most docs just link it club culture and explore that side of it like House Generation did. -----Original Message----- From: Dan Bean [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 24, 2003 10:11 AM To: Robert Taylor Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: RE: (313) Movies OT
