We here at Rhizome have been busy assembling an entire week's worth of documentaries about the history of electronic music. We've tried to keep the subject matter diverse -- with documentaries covering the technology behind the music to the emergence of a number of different genres, from krautrock to jungle. We hope you enjoy the selection. If you would like to submit your recommendations, feel free to use the comments section to make additions or you can email suggestions to tips [at] rhizome.org. Please keep in mind that the videos must be available online in their entirety and, ideally, embeddable.
Just published our documentary on Swedish electronic audio/visual artist Kristofer Ström, in it's entirety, on vimeo: http://www.vimeo.com/8031268. Some parts are in Swedish only but there's an English subtitled version available, and embeddable, at http://www.overstream.net/view.php?oid=neufmqnjasl1. Enjoy!
Kindly, Olof
this should be exciting!

the great british synth documentary :)
Did anyone catch these were they any good?
This synth is amazing, and reminds me of the original 80's new romantics like Duran and Depeche, so cool.
