Jean-Michel Jarre to Release a Book About the History of Electronic Music: Here’s When It Arrives

Machines: A History of Electronic Music will feature contributions from Richie Hawtin, Armin Van Buuren, Johnny Marr and more.

Dance music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre can now add “published author” to his resume, as the French titan is set to release his debut book this fall.

Coming Nov. 24, Machines: A History of Electronic Music will document Jarre’s vast collection of electronic and electro-acoustic instruments. According to a press release, “Through these machines, Jarre traces the evolution of a century of sonic experimentation, underscoring the ideas, technologies and cultural movements that shaped electronic music as we know it today.”
