Relying heavily on the Moog and later the Synclavier synth\/sampler, these 21 tracks document Nikolais' highly-prescient compositions across the mid 1960s through to the late 1980s - existing not only as extensions of his other-worldly choreographic pieces, but standalone pieces of foundational mid-century American electronic and experimental music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n[[Selling Points]]\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable on 2LP and cassette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMusic from the father of multi-media theatre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21 compositions across the mid 1960s to the late 1980s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n[[Catalog Number]]DEATH130LP[[Artist]]Alwin Nikolais","brand":"Death Is Not The End","offers":[{"title":"Electronic Dance Music, 1966-1989 \/ Album \/ 2LP Black","offer_id":48258600435957,"sku":"DEATH130LP","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Electronic Dance Music, 1966-1989 \/ Album \/ Cassette","offer_id":48258600468725,"sku":"DEATH130","price":16.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/6417\/2096\/files\/5050580877221.jpg?v=1781289352","url":"https:\/\/lightintheattic.net\/products\/electronic-dance-music-1966-1989","provider":"Light in the Attic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
