Welcome to the new CyberDen Internet Radio Show and Website.

The first show is finally done! /cheer!

This debut show is over 2 and a half hours long and is more of a primer episode covering the time period of the mid 60's to the mid 80's and how electronic music, in my ears, was possibly born.

This show, as well as future shows will be available for streaming or direct download and I'll include a playlist at the end of each show entry for your reference.

So sit back or download and take with you the premiere CyberDen Internet Radio Show!

You'll also be exposed to new music, bands, news and other informative tid-bits just as CyberDen had become world famous for doing in the past when the site was known as 'the place' in the internet for such wares. Don't take my word for it, just look at our TECH section to read more about how CyberDen was featured in Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, Wired and many others.

I was first introduced to electronic music before it was any type of scene. Before an electronic music scene of any type even existed. We're talking way before Goth, Industrial, Ambient, Punk, New Age or New Wave. I guess you could of called it an accident as that's pretty much what electronic music during this time was referred to as: An accident.

It was around 1970

(The_hair_as_well...). I was fascinated with my father's stereo equipment and upon looking back, pride myself on not being one of those snot-nosed little kids who would push in the speaker cones. Instead I would watch them with fascination as they moved back and forth, projecting an invisible cascade of sound that could only be intensified more by moving the speakers so they could be placed pointing towards each other allowing me to put my head between them. It was shortly after this I noticed headphones appeared in the apartment.

Before I was born, my father did a few years here and there as a radio DeeJay. He still had a few records in his collection and I immediately was drawn to one in particular. It felt more like an electronic womb god to me. Other records you just listened to, this record
MUSIC FROM MATHEMATICS
Played by IBM 7090 COMPUTER and DIGITAL TO SOUND TRANSDUCER

I obtained my mint STEREO (very rare) copy off ebay years ago to replace my Dad's scratched to hell MONO version. literally caused my being to displace, almost like being beamed via an archaic electrical transporter to a most frightening yet warm and peaceful place that simply removed all axis of feeling and allowed me to literally float on what felt like a microscopic world that dwarfed everything in existance.

Although I was only 5 years old, I knew a path in my life was at least outlined. I started listening to anything I could find on record, reel to reel, on TV or on radio including the static. I soon realized my culinary sonic tastes were beyond that of what could be obtained by normal listening habits and so began my journey to search out and listen to what would add to my blueprint of life.

In this first primer episode, we'll take a listen back to that first Music From Mathematics album along with other composers (or in some cases 'programmers') who set the stage for both musical and experimental paths in the industry. From Morton Subotnick
