Summary:
"Polish Electronic Music 1970-2020 offers a cultural history of popular Polish electronic music, from its beginning in the late 1960/early 1970s till the present day, in the context of Polish economic, social and political history and the history of popular music in this country. From the perspective of production, scene, industry and consumption, the volume considers the issue of access to electronic instruments in the 1970s and 1980s, and the variety of inspirations, such as progressive rock and folk music, that have contributed to the development of Polish electronic music as it is known today. The widespread contribution of Polish electronic music within film is also considered. This is a valuable resource for scholars and researchers of electronic music, popular music, and (Eastern) European music and culture"-- Provided by publisher.
