    For something more modern i'll say pretty much the whole self-debut album from Burial.

    Started that whole frenzy that used to be called post-dubstep and now has evolved to the tunes
    that people like Flume are making. I like to think it found it's way into pop somehow.

    Started techno sub genre acid, originated in house music (-> acid house).
    They experimented with Rolands (in that era of time big fail / bad selling bass guitar emulation) TB 303, added distortion, and started jaming with the cutoff, resonance, decay ect.
    There was a time when stores selled those for a few bucks, in the prime time of acid in mid/late 90‘s, you could easily pay a few grands!!

    „The first big boom bap tune“ (quote from marley marl) done by Markey Marl, the guy who invented hiphop style sampling (accidentally, started of with 70‘s sampled solo drum sounds, became the formula for boom bap hiphop / golden 90‘s era)

  14. First non-classical synthesizer album (TONTO) 1971



    Zero Time is the debut album by British-American electronic music duo Tonto's Expanding Head Band, released on 15 June 1971 by Embryo Records. The album is a showcase for TONTO (The Original New Timbral Orchestra), a multitimbral, polyphonic synthesiser build by the two members of the band, Malcolm Cecil and Robert Margouleff, as a developed version of the Moog III synth in 1969. The duo began producing their own music together on the synth with the intention to push the machine's abilities, and their own abilities as musicians, to the limit. Recording their compositions in New York, they approached TONTO with no pre-conceived notions and intended to make music intrinsic to the synthesiser.

    The album is instrumental and experimental in style, possessing a full capacity for the Moog's timbre and range. A science fiction influence is also evident on the album. The original album cover depicts a psychedelic painting by Carol Hertzer depicting stars and swirling nebulae. Upon release, the album was not a commercial success but received positive attention from music critics, who complimented the album's usage of the Moog's "outer limits". The album is today considered a groundbreaking and innovative album which expanded the boundaries of the synthesiser. It has also proven influential, particularly on Stevie Wonder, who hired the duo to work on four of his most popular albums. Zero Time has been remastered and re-released several times.

    Hmmm. I would not call it the first Deep House tune. A year earlier Mr Fingers had released Mystery of Love

    This was 1 of the first tunes , along with yellos „oh yeah“ tune & the from s-xpress ( klf) , or bomb the bass - beat this, that really introduced me to sampling. Run DMC‘s its tricky was a big thing for me 2, or grand masterflashs street thang, early electro stuff like soul sonic force (sampling kraftwerk !).
    Maaaan, i love music (especially electronic)
