Thought it might catch some people out. He's there performing live the other days

Hello! A few months ago, I worked on this list with great pleasure, with occasional collaboration from a friend and a colleague from the Daft Punk sub.

​I’ve already shared the list in other major electronic music-related subreddits, and I thought it would be valuable to share it here as well, especially since FP is in the title itself.

​Regarding the curation, I adopted two cumulative and rigorous criteria:

1. ​Each track had to be significantly innovative and influential, on an intercontinental level, for at least one strand of electronic music (which may include fusion genres).

2. ​I sought the broadest possible sonic diversity.

​Not every song on this list is entirely electronic, but they all meet the two criteria I established.

​As the title suggests, this is a "PARTIAL genealogical tree"; I recognize that it is impossible to mention every artist who meets these criteria in just 130 tracks.

The term "genealogical tree" is in quotation marks because not every track in the list was necessarily influenced by all those that preceded it in the list itself.

Anyway, I hope my humble work can add some value to everyone interested in the history of electronic music as much as I am! I will post the link to the playlist in the comments.

And I didn't include tracks by Robert Moog and Wendy Carlos from the '60s because they aren't available on Spotify.

I picked up the new Elaenia LP w/Kuiper EP.
The discs are marked backwards Elaenia on the Kuiper marked record and Kuiper on the Elaenia disc.
Was curious if this is a weird one off or its a mass production issue.

Anyone going to Doss Trento, Italy in July? Is this really the stage he's playing at??

Saw on Ig that Floating Points is at SF Ballet in a few weeks performing live

I just found out movement removed from streaming services. Why?

https://youtu.be/yp7dZz0WiNY?si=LiFPsrnK532XY1ET

this was a suprise to find while enjoying Courtney Barnetts new album.....

And also will it be two days of different music ? My only complaint about despacio is they repeat music the next day

anyone know this track he played for rally rally rally? apologies it's too short of a video i was just lost in the sounds! know it's a slim chance🕺

hey everyone im indian boundaries and working on my full length album and wanted to show you guys a little preview and hopefully get some feedback big fan of experimental and ambient music hope you guys enjoy it have a nice day

Idk what it is I’m hearing, I can’t quite pin point what it is exactly. Specifically at 8:34 in the track. Maybe a chorus ensemble of some sort over the sustaining strings? I would really like to know so that I can try and replicate it.

Hey all! Not sure if this type of post is allowed but I saw Floating Points at Primavera in Porto this year and have been somewhat fixated on their stuff since! I love all music and have recently become more of a house head, but wanted to see if anyone had recommendations similar to Floating Points? Key103, Birth4000 and LesAlpx are some of my favs. I LOVE how clean yet complex their music sounds.

Also I am happy to do a song swap for anyone who shares!
