Back in 1963 when synthesizers and electronic music were strictly the refuge of academic professors, Morton Subotnick played Don Buchla's Music Box on his experimental album 'Silver Apples Of The Moon', and put electronic music firmly in the imagination of the public. The grandfather of electronic music and his non-traditional approach to pitch and timbre has been influencing sound design and installations ever since.
