Are you a fan of electronic music? Well here's a chance for you to learn how your favorite electronic songs are produced! 

ElectroSound: Du lab au dancefloor’ – on at the Espace Fondation EDF from May 25-October 2 – aims to take visitors on an immersive tour through the history of electronic music, from the earliest experimental productions of the ‘40s and the work of cutting-edge pioneers like Pierre Schaeffer and Robert Moog, right up to the Disclosures and Skrillexes of the present day. Not only does this exhibit convincingly dispel the myth that techno and house are ‘easy’ types of music to produce, it also does a good job of explaining how the genres have morphed into the monolithic cultural and social phenomena they are today. Visitors can also try and discover their inner virtuoso at one of the various interactive workshops and play around with various synthesisers, vocoders and samplers themselves.
