Yeah this is a seriously a great resource especially in how it goes back to the early days. I didn't immediately find an, "entry" for Delia Derbyshire but Daphne Oram is there. I remember spending hours on Wikipedia as a kid doing research trying to develop an involved understanding of what drove innovation in electronic music. This will put a future, "me" that much further along. Great work.

- hluska 1y agoI read your original post and I don’t enjoy the bitterness. Nor am I a fan of phrases like “pump your loins children” as they just don’t belong. The Velvets were an excellent band and there have been many amazing bands since. While new bands aren’t charting on Billboard, nobody cares about Billboard anyways. This quality hits many different genres and subgenres and makes me happy to be a music fan. Sometimes, we’ve got to get on with it and support the kids.
