Talk:Timeline of electronic music genres

Untitled

Why can I find no reference to "Moon Music" on here?

This was the earliest electronic 'novelty' music of the late '50s and early '60s, often nothing more electronic and an electric organ, but usually including various electronic shond effects as highlights.

Embedded links

I recently removed embedded links to YouTube videos (and a few other similar sites). This was reverted without comment. Some of these were links to copyright violations, and the ones that aren't seem like a pretty clear violation of our guideline about linking to external sites. In particular, #8 says not to link to rich media sites. I have removed the links to copyright violations, but I think the rest of them should also be removed.

The Bombay acid house scene...

I don't think it makes sense to list "Bombay" in the entry on acid house. Sure, there was this one album, "Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat", sounding astonishingly familiar to later acid house, but a) it sounds rather like goa techno or trance than house, b) it was not at all part of the house or acid house movement and therefore has nothing to with this genre, c) it didn't even influence anything back then, as it was re-discovered in the 2000s by some crate diggers, and d), as it it was released in 1982, it would force us list acid house prior to house, from which it really derived, and that wouldn't make any sense at all. So, if there's no objection (although I except it to be, which is way I layed out all these four arguments), I'd like to remove that entry. WilhelmSchneider (talk) 10:34, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

Issues all over

There seems to be a lot more inaccuracy throughout the Electronic Music section that I previously remember. Dates, countries, important artists, influences, etc are all out of wack or wrong. There are many important pioneers not mentioned at all and for some reason the article skips about a 50 year period…? Yet takes the time to detail many artists whose work has only become popular recently looking back rather than having a broad influence when it was conceived, which should be the point of attempting this undertaking. Brian Eno for instance learned (and ripped) “Ambient” from Cluster who he played in a band with after their first several recordings yet there’s no mention of their outsized influence. Where’s Varese? The Barron’s? Someone went through with a slant rather they realized it or not to describe their personal taste in modernity instead of the actual history. 2600:1005:B0CB:1BED:ECB4:A4E0:36DC:A5FA (talk) 06:59, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
