This member is the original thread starter. Default History of Electronica

I'm taking a musicology class for my school radio station. I'm training to get a radio show and I want mine to be electronica. There are plenty of radio djs for the station and only a few of them have any electronica in their show, and when they do it's very little.

I have a LOT to learn, however, as I only started getting into trance recently. I know a bunch of you must know a lot about electronica, whether it's the history, or structure of the different subgenres, or knowing which djs started/revolutionized the scene.

I'm not sure what I'm asking. I know this is a very vague and probably unhelpful post. If you guys can point me in the right direction for any info about the history and stuff, that'd be awesome. It's not a specific assignment I have to do, I just need and want to learn all about it. Thanks!

You can always start with this informative site: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Just be sure to check out the labels and artist info there too. The dictionary is down but when they bring it back it has a mess of info too. It's a great site to start to learn about the genres and some of the history.

look for the documentary "Pump Up The Volume"... it's the history of the dance music scene up to the early 90s (starting with Chicago/NY, then moving onto Detroit and the England, and then back)... there is a link somewhere to it on the internet, i just can't find it at the moment

this site has lots of info and audio examples of oldschool techno (not of the detroit type)
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
on this page of that site, there's tons of dope audio examples as well
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

and of course, if you want to learn about all the billions of genres and sub genres and sub sub genres of electronic dance music there's this handy dandy guide with tons of audio examples
