Thinking Outside of the Cage
A year ago I took an Electronic Music course and was introduced to the likes of John Cage. An evolutionist, leader and creator that influenced the very root of electronic music as we know it today. John Cage was a man of random who liked to create a selection of sounds which he would input into his recorder with no order at all, rather give the recorder the information and see what comes out on the other side. Having worked prior to the digital age Cage used many items to create his sound effects and notes for his randomly chosen musical scores. He was a man of genius in the form of music and any proprietor of electronic music needs to be well aware of who he is.
