Bebe Barron has passed away. Barron, with husband Louis Barron, composed the first soundtrack of electronic music for a feature film, the 1956 release, (Forbidden Planet).
NPR ran a 9 minute piece about them a few years ago, “The Barrons: Forgotten Pioneers of Electronic Music” (You can listen to the story or just listen to the sound clips at that link).
Er, what NPR link?
I have that sound track! I love it almost as much as Man In Space With Sounds.
One broken bracket…Thanks, link!
