Description

“Since it’s first edition in 1972, Electronic Music: Systems, Techniques and Controls has been acknowledged as the definitive text on modular synthesis. In today’s musical community analogue techniques have made a resurgence among many musicians and composers.

The idea of a republication has been in the works for many years and the timing of doing it now just made sense. I am very grateful to Jason Nolan, Ann Ludbrook and the team at Toronto Metropolitan University who saw the importance of this endeavour as well as taking on the task of bringing this book back to life. I am so appreciative of their attention to preserving the quality of the book and respecting its content. I know that this project would have meant a lot to Allen, specifically in knowing that his techniques and teachings are continuing to influence the future of electronic music.” – Pat Strange

“Allen Strange’s book was ahead of it’s time and it’s time is now!” – Suzanne Ciani

“Allen’s book quickly became my bible, I have used it in my teachings for thirty years” – Eric Chasalow

“When I first stumbled upon this book at the university library as a student, I felt like I had discovered a secret treasure. Opening the cover felt like opening the door to a mysterious new world. I’m delighted that a new generation can again share this experience of excitement and discovery!” – Carla Scarletti
