New documentary "Sisters with Transistors" - prominent women, pioneers of electronic music. With a focus on some of the movement’s greatest collaborators such as Laurie Spiegel, Delia Derbyshire and Suzanne Ciani, the film titled “Sisters with Transistors” will premiere at London’s Barbican Theater on November 14th 2020.  Although electronic music is often perceived as a men's club, it is true from the very beginning that women were an important part of the invention of devices, techniques and styles that would define the form of sound in the years to come.  The aim of the film is to reveal an often neglected aspect of the history of electronic music.
