From a lecture hall in 1960s New York to a warehouse in 90s Detroit, this traces the unlikely path of musical minimalism. Through the phasing experiments of Steve Reich, the machine pulse of Kraftwerk, and the stripped-down techno of Robert Hood, all the way to the elastic grooves of Ricardo Villalobos, the data-driven sound of Ryoji Ikeda, and the minimal pioneers like Akufen and the Wighnomy Brothers.
