HALF A CENTURY OF ELECTRONIC MUSIC IN GREECE (1958-2016)

HALF A CENTURY OF ELECTRONIC MUSIC IN GREECE (1958-2016)

It may not be noticeable at first, but the electronic experience in our country has now completed half a century. So, for the first time in the annals of the Greek music press, an attempt is made to fit electronic music into one issue, which starts with the first experimenters and reaches the neon parties that drive today's kids crazy. At the same time, a brave stance is taken in the '90s and in the culture of the big dance clubs, which defined the relationship of a large mass of Greek youth with electronics.
