2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Everyone should own this book; and read it.By zxcevbnm5 stars. Everyone involved in the experimental + electronic music / arts should have a copy of this book at home. It should be the topic of discussions both formal and informal. PINK NOISES belongs in every syllabus for any electronic music course (especially electronic music history; but really; any course) taught in every university; and especially universities who pride themselves on their electronic and experimental composition and music / arts programs. The interviews are insightful and unique to each artist; and the book represents a fair slice (FINALLY) of women; ethnicities; genres; from backgrounds of all sorts (creative / musical / non); in the field of electronic music / technology-related arts. Thank you; Tara.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Mario MartinN-E-A-T!
