Summary
"Listening to the Music the Machines Make chronicles a watershed in British music: the birth of electronic pop. It explores how Krautrock, disco, glam rock and punk inspired a new generation to rip up the rulebook and tak their music to new frontiers. Including an extensive collection of archive images throughout--as well as exclusive input from key players such as Vince Clarke, Martyn Ware, Daniel Miller and many more--this is the radical story of electronic pop."--Back cover.
