Electroacoustic music is a term given to a type of music which originated in the late 1940s, and early 1950s. Originally, there were two groups of composers who were at strict odds with each other. In Paris, Musique Concrète, pioneered by Pierre Schaeffer, was based on the juxtapositon of natural sounds recorded to tape or disc. In Cologne, Elektronische Musik , pioneered by Herbert Eimert, was based around the construction of tones using only sine waves, which Eimert considered to be an electronic extension of serialism.
