Electroacoustic/Musique concrète
A form of music that is made in part from acousmatic sound in addition to sounds derived from musical instruments or voices. It is the incorporation of electric sound production into compositional practice. It may use other sources of sound such as electronic synthesizers or sounds recorded from nature. Also, the structure of the compositions is not restricted to the normal musical rules of melody, harmony, rhythm, metre and so on.
