Electronic musician Walter Carlos was born in 1938 in Pawtucket, Rhode Island (USA) and had a big interest in both music and technology. At the age of ten he composed his first piece and at 14 he build a small home computer. Three years later he assembled an electronic music studio and created his first electronic musical composition, manipulated with some tape recording.
With the wish to develop an electronic sound producing unit which could validly be called a musical instrument, Carlos began a collaboration with engineer Robert Moog in 1966. The result was a prototype of Carlos' special synthesizer on which he performed and recorded his realizations of Bach and other composers (the Switched-On series) and his music for the musical score of A Clockwork Orange.
In 1972, he had a sex-change becoming Wendy Carlos, and has been known the rest of her career with this name. This means that the artists name Walter Carlos refers to a specific period of time and a small set of releases, especially the first Switched-Ons.
