The Cognitive Continuum of Electronic Music provides an excellent model for students who wish to integrate perceptual or cognitive listening experiments with their personal practice. The book contextualizes the studies, conveys the necessary details to evaluate the experimental design, and draws conclusions that are driven both empirically and through practice. The extensive bibliography covers subjects and sources that are critical to electronic music scholarship, perception, listening, cognition, and experimental design. * Kerry L. Hagan, Lecturer, Digital Media and Arts Research Centre, University of Limerick, Ireland, and President of the International Computer Music Association * This book traces electronic music from its infancy to the present day, acknowledging many of the field’s important figures and influential developments. Building on this foundation, it draws on novel research approaches which illuminate important areas, including insights into the relationships between electronic music and the listener, thus holding potential to inform not only future studies, but also the continuing development of electronic music’s creation and consumption. * Tony Rigg, Music Industry Practitioner and Advisor, University of Central Lancashire, UK, and co-editor of The Evolution of Electronic Dance Music (2021) *
