At more than 120 bpm, electronic music sets the tempo on dancefloors around the globe. Accompanying the exhibition Electronic: From Kraftwerk to The Chemical Brothers, this book offers an insight into the visual culture of electronic music, and how technology, design, art and fashion have contributed to its power. With its roots in Detroit and Chicago in the early 1980s, electronic dance music was popularised across Europe through underground rave parties. Its impact on contemporary culture is still unfolding today. Containing interviews with early pioneers such as techno legend Jeff Mills, The Designers Republic’s Ian Anderson, and those pushing the political dimension of electronic music, such as ballroom dancer and DJ Kiddy Smile, Electronic bears witness to the shifting nature of the genre Illustrated with over 300 images, some published here for the first time, Electronic features Jean-Michel Jarre’s virtual studio; work by pioneer Daphne Oram of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop; audiovisual performances by musicians like Bicep and the Chemical Brothers; fashion collections by Raf Simons and Charles Jeffrey of Loverboy; iconic photography by Jacob Khrist and Tina Paul; artwork by Christian Marclay; club graphics from Peter Saville and Mark Farrow; and iconic venues such as the Haçienda, Gatecrasher, Fabric, Berghain and the Warehouse Project. Reflecting the shifts in society over the past thirty years, electronic music has generated distinct visual languages as well as its own political and cultural ideals Edited by Jean-Yves Leloup, Gemma Curtin and Maria McLintock Designed by Agnès Dahan Studio and Design Museum Publishing

MEMORY CODE is a project with the central focus on the human memory. Originally developed as an audio/video live performance the duo SCHNITT based their research for this work on the decoding of their personal memory During the composition of the album, Schnitt undergoes an inspection and analysis of their own conserved informations, automatisms and intense emotional states connecting them with their current state of mind The album Memory Code is developed in nine tracks, each one dedicated to a certain type of memory in which successions of layers gradually become visible and emerge in the soundstructure generating a balance between subtle personal sensations and vibrations. Crumbled fragments of memory - undefined and blurred combine and overlap, a disorderly flow of events subordinated to rigid mathematical structures are finding a location in the sound space interposed between past echoes and future moments For the realisation of the album MEMORY CODE, SCHNITT extends their work inviting several international artists to participate with their personal sound memory to the project, asking them to send one or more “ memory sound files” in order to integrate and open the project to other artistic influences, different cultural backgrounds, national origins and generations The "memory file" contributions received by the eleven guest artists Caterina Barbieri, Ignacio Aguilera Bericochea, Tilman Ehrhorn, Anders Ilar, Incite/, Vitor Joaquim, Herman Kolgen, Ran Slavin, TacitGroup, Frans de Waard and Pavel Zhagun are integrated as a micro ignition of memory into the sound structures previously developed by SCHNITT, as well as being an initial input for new compositions in behalf of the Memory Code album FEATURING : CATERINA BARBIERI, I.A.

TONSTICH is a project based on the creation of a sonorous dress; an audio/video project which explores through sound an images the creative/industrial process of an imaginary dress In TONSTICH basic sound parameters - Attack Decay Sustain Release - are directly related to the dress construction parameters X and Y (length | width) The characteristics of the shape, fit and look of this imaginary dress are determined by the audio composition, following the strict manufacturing schedule of each production unit, the dress is initially modelled by the industrial production process yet continuously modified by the listener’s individual sonorous experience The audio material used for the composition of TONSTICH is based on the authentic sound recorded in industrial manufacturing facilities of garments and textiles Single noise patterns from the bartack machine mixed with the humming of the 2 needle machine weave in combination with electronic structures a fit sound fabric TONSTICH develops in 8 tracks , which correspond to each construction and manufacturing step leading to the unusual dress proposed by Amelie Duchow 300 copies limited edition in clear vinyl Track list:A1 | TU 74 cm : 3,42 A2 | 480 ANSCHLAGE : 4,49 A3 | 130°: 6,21 A4 | f=20N | 8T : 5,42 B1 | RESONANZNAHT : 5,49B2 | KLANGFARBE : 4,50B3 | STICHDECAY : 4,57B4 | OUTROFORM : 7,05

Roland TB-303 Gradient Poster

£45.00

Exclusive to the Design Museum, a 2-colour gradient poster - from yellow to pink - of the Roland TB-303 Bass Line synthesizer 40 x 50cm Limited signed print of 120 Printed on GF SMITH Naturalis - Absolute White Matt paper This poster has been created using the split fountain screen printing technique, where two inks are simultaneously pushed through the screen to create a natural colour blend. The results are truly unique each time, giving each poster an individual finish. The TB-303 (Transistor Bass) released in 1982 was originally marketed at guitarists as a bass accompaniment but was overlooked until the mid 80s when DJs and electronic producers in Chicago discovered its unique capabilities Producers started to experiment with the filter's cutoff frequency, resonance and envelope modulation which resulted in truly unique sound, one which was the birth of an entire sub-genre; acid house In 1988 acid house arrived on the UK shores from the US, at the same time as the emergence of a new drug, ecstasy. Between 1988-89 the UK’s youth population was gripped by the movement, dubbed the Second Summer of Love. Music, art & fashion were all transformed forever… and it was even symbolised by its own logo, the smiley With only 10,000 units originally produced, the TB-303 is one of the most sought out vintage synths ever and the Guardian listed its release as one of the 50 key events in the history of dance music

Exclusive to the Design Museum, a 2-colour gradient poster - from green to blue - of the Technics SL-1210MK2 direct drive turntable system 40 x 50cm Printed on GF SMITH Naturalis - Absolute White Matt paper Limited signed print of 120 This poster has been created using the split fountain screen printing technique, where two inks are simultaneously pushed through the screen to create a natural colour blend. The results are truly unique each time, giving each poster an individual finish. The Technics SL-1200 turntable series was produced between 1972-2010 as a high-fidelity consumer record player but quickly became a favourite among radio stations and DJs because of its direct drive high torque motor design, which made it suitable for push button cueing. The introduction of slip-mats saw the rise of (beat)mixing and scratching amongst DJs, also known as turntablism. The build quality and control over wow and flutter meant the equipment was particularly suitable for use in nightclubs and has become a staple With more than 3 million units sold, the SL-1200MK2 and its successors, is widely regarded as one of the most durable and reliable turntables ever produced with many of the models manufactured in the 1970s still in heavy use Frame not included
