The world's first primarily electronic pop hit
– and kernel of a future fractal universe of synthetic sonic materials – was composed by Gershon Kingsley. The German-American composer discovered the melody while noodling on a Bach improvisation and released it on 1969's Music to Moog By.
It took off in a Paris disco and went on to inspire renditions by Aphex Twin, Muse and Crazy Frog.
It was one of the first pop hits to be entirely played by a synthesizer.
