met with critical acclaim, this award-winning box set celebrated the composers and inventors who led the electronic music revolution. Five years later due to continued demand from passionate aficionados (eBay sales at $150, etc.) we're now re-releasing the Special Edition OHM+ containing a bonus DVD with over two and a half hours of performances, interviews, and experimental video. Three CDs (42 original music tracks from 1948-1980) packaged in a deluxe fold-out digipak, slipcased with a 112-page book of notes and information about the contained material (texts by: Brian Eno, DJ Spooky, Otto Luening, Francois Bayle, David Toop, Robert Moog, etc.). Plus, unique to this new version: a Special Edition DVD -- Over two hours of rare performances, interviews, animations, and experimental video." Most works are in excerpted form (full versions of everything here would have required a much bigger set to say the least), but there are a number of exclusive, previously unreleased tracks as well (Richard Maxwell, MEV, Raymond Scott, La Monte Young, Maryanne Amacher & Jon Hassell). Crucial release for the beginner or the connoisseur, and everybody inbetween. Artists: Clara Rockmore, Olivier Messiaen, Pierre Schaeffer, John Cage, Herbert Eimert/Robert Beyer, Otto Luening, Hugh Le Caine, Louis and Bebe Barron, Oskar Sala, Edgard Varese, Richard Maxfield, Tod Dockstader, Karlheinz Stockhause
