saw a fascinating documentary on one of Denmark's electronic music pioneers, Else Marie Pade started her electronic music career looking for 'found sounds' that she used to create and tell the stories she had in her head, on hearing a radio program on the French electro-acoustic composer Pierre Schaeffer in the early fifties, she realized there was an international scene with which she shared a musical metaphysical stance, actually meeting up with Pierre Schaeffer, Karlheinz Stockhausen, etc..., she kept a low profile all of her life, but got rediscovered by the new generation of Danish electronic music artists like Thomas Knak
