on http://www.discogs.com/artist/Madonna, user 0x00 wrote - Aug 25, 2002:
Madonna's influence on electronic music cannot be overstated. Having gained her Masters in electrical engineering from Cornell University, her passion for creating new sonic textures lead her away from academia and along a path that was to alter the way we think of sound.
In 1984 she produced what years later became recognised as the first jungle record: 'Holiday', which utilised homemade synthesis technology, and though it failed to sell all 250 copies her n-pole digital filtering algorithm proved sufficiently innovative to earn a lucrative licensing deal with Korg. But it was acid techno where she made her name. A young Richard D. James was in the crowd during a live performance in the notorious underground club BBC Television Centre. "It was mental," he recalled, "she was setting up huge fucking standing waves everywhere, people would step into them and their arms would snap. It was like the vortex from The Adventure Game."
Responding to accusations that she had sold out after being revealed as the real creative force behind Goldie's 'Timeless' and the publication of her poorly-received book 'Sex', a history of Islamic theology, exegesis and law, Madonna was scornful. "These people wouldn't even know what I was selling out from! They aren't my people. They aren't music people. Homosexual men in their late thirties with large disposable income and racks of Kylie and Abba ? THESE are music people."
In 1998 she married film director Chris Cunningham. They have two children.
