Notes on Electronic and Experimental Music by Thom Holmes
p. 6 - Ensembles for Synthesizer Milton Babbitt using RCA Music Synthesizer
Mark Mothersbaugh / DEVO
Looked for sounds that were relative to the time - news broadcasts.

"Everybody had a whacked-out sound. There were no normal sounds on any of the instruments. They had all been tweaked. What you hear on the Hardcore Devo CD is how we would sit around in a living room in 1974 or '75. Mark would have a Minimoog on a table and an ARP Odyssey [synth], I would have a Gibson bass and a tiny amp, Jim Mothersbaugh would have his electronic drums, and Bob Mothersbaugh would have a guitar coming through a little Champ [amp]. And we would write songs and play them..." - Jim Casale

I'm using this post as a log to keep track of early electronic female musicians. There are a lot of people I want to post on here, so it's a slow process.
