Modulations: Cinema For The Ear

"The evolution of electronic music. The innovative programme delves into history... To those inspirational moments where machines and humans fused to create the elementary roots of much of today's sounds. This programme cuts between the avantgarde composers such as the innovative synthesizer style of Kraftwerk, Afrika Bambaataa's electrofunk, Roni Size and his drum and bass landmarks, and the likes of Photek, one of the most original jungle composers. A truly epic portrait of the phenomenon of electronic music with performances and interviews from the best in the business" Produced by George Gund Directed by Iara Lee Directors of photography: Marcus Burnett & Paul Yates Consultant writer: Peter Shapiro Editor: Paula Heredia Sound montage: Mark Jan Wlodarkiewicz Production sound mixer: Antonio Arroyo Production managers: David Read & J.D.
