It's funny. When I started collecting vinyl and took my dad's records, he showed me the Silver Apples first album and told me how this was the first of it's kind telling me this was the first type of "electronic music" he was ever exposed to...

RIP Simeon Coxe, truly ahead of your time.

Silver Apples played mayday in central park 1968! That was THE most epic Mayday ever. So much happened that one day.

Decades ahead of their time. Absolutely mind blowing

Silver Apples is one of my biggest influences. The new "Clinging to a Dream" album (2016) is fantastic and it's on KZread. God bless you Simeon and RIP Dan Taylor.

I was a young budding musician when the album first came out and I bought it because I liked the cover. Oscillations is such a hypnotic tune.

Fair well Simeon - may you grace the next plain of existence with your warbling oscillators, playing with Danny Taylor once more RIP ♥️

Oh man i can only imagine being at that show in Central Park.

Beautiful guy.

For anyone wondering, the songs in the video are: Misty Mountain Oscillations I Have Known Love

RIP Simeon, you shall be missed

What a great guy! A true visionair

Nothing is more beautiful than the fact that Pan-am, which tried everything to destroy them, is long gone, but the Silver Apples are still around!

Great Man. Great Music. R.I.P. Simeon.

First Schneider and now Simeon. We now have 2 electronic pioneers that died in one year. Have fun on the moon Simeon.

You are awesome!! peace, love and light! :) Juan

What a cool guy.

I love the Silver Apples since I got their CDs in the 90s.

This video is so fucking awesome in so many ways haha! I love his booth set up and everything! And the psychedelic images being played in the background while he performs. I'd probably feel at home during his show if I was thrown back in time. Go ahead and get technical with you genres but regardless his sound was def Electronic and people Danced to his Music. Great watch

Groovy story man!

April 2021 just learned of the band Silver Apples. Better late than never. The Establishment does what it does, science/engineering/politics/finance are at their leverage. But, the artist is manifested liberty. Liberty from The Establishment. What Happened to Ya - Ian Brown, parts 1 & 2

I love him hahaha such a positive man fair play he is a good view on music and life

wonderful band

That is CRAZY! I thought techno music was made in the 1980s.

Amazing band

What a lot of people in the comments are doing is looking at this from their own perspective. Imagine hearing this when it first came out and you’d never heard anything like it before. You’d have a completely different appreciation for it. It was the EDM of its time. EDM wasn’t invented last week, last month or last year!

RIP, Simeon!

Sweet

inspiring stuff. thanks. I am batman.

What is it? I thought it meant Electronic Dance Music, and was an umbrella term for everything from techno to house to D&B, anything music that isn't made with a live band and is meant for a party dance atmosphere. I have no clue what IDM is???

+Glen Jamieson No techno, DnB, trance or hardcore (or REAL house) fan/DJ wants to be associated with the word EDM. Most people just use the term for big room and fake "progressive house" and sometimes also trap.

If this guy was doing EDM way before anybody else, why is that I often hear Giorgio Moroder become credited with starting the genre...?

actually kraftwerk is often noted for pioneering the genre, but in all honesty there were many artists in the early 70s that helped pave the way for edm, it cant be attributed to a single person

***** Electronic music goes back even further than Moroder or Silver Apples. It was started by the advent of recorded sound. The idea was born at that moment. It took a little while for the dance part to take shape but it wasn't long before people were making electronic music explicitly intended for dancing. Moroder and Kraftwerk weren't the first either. I mean Kraftwerk would have never happened if it weren't for the whole german psychedelic music scene and specifically Cluster a.k.a Mobius and Rodelius. Mobius and Rodelius were early pioneers as well. It's important to remember everyone is influenced by something. Ideas come from somewhere. Kraftwerk was definitely listening to Cluster and picked up on using synths from that because early on they were psychedelic trancey rock and even before that they called themselves Organization and they were doing experimental jazzy stuff. There was much more italian electronic stuff going on before Moroder too. There was a whole scene that he was tapping into. That is how music often gets known. Moroder was just the most popular because he brought the electronic sound over to pop disco. Silver Apples were a part of the NYC psychedelic rock scene even though they weren't quite rock. At the time anything electronic was rock just like people throw the EDM label around when it is not that simple.

the point i was trying to make in my comment was that electronic music was created and inspired by more then a single person, your comment reiterates what i was saying. i know kraftwerk didn't "create" electronic music nor were they the first to use it, but they influenced a whole generation of edm artists, and are more often credited for pioneering the sound more so then any other artists

were im going with this is not everything is edm .. edm is popularized electronica music. electronica music embodies ( experimental, techno, dubstep , 2 step, garage, ghetto tech, tech house, house , trance, big beat, break beat, indie dance... edm take that and commercializes it and makes it marketable ... nothing wrong with that however when everything is now all of a sudden edm lines get blurred ...

Silver Apples were psychadellic electronica, or maybe just plain old 'experimental'... they were DEFINITELY NOT EDM.

Its psych dance stuff and it uses electronics. Close enough. It's at the very least an interesting piece of the history of electrronica.
