Perrey and Kingsley (known also as "Perrey & Kingsley" or "Perrey-Kingsley") was an electronic music duo made up of French composer Jean-Jacques Perrey and German-American composer Gershon Kingsley. The duo lasted from 1965 to 1967 and both are considered pioneers of electronic music. The duo recorded for Vanguard Records and released two studio albums: The In Sound From Way Out! and Kaleidoscopic Vibrations. They also were among the first musicians to incorporate the Moog synthesizer, prior to the successful 1968 release Switched-On Bach by Wendy Carlos.
