This is what electronic music was before it became commercialised and mainstream as "music with synthesizers."

Most of it is pre-synth, with early experiments with tape, and sometimes analog synthesis and computer DSP.

It's ended up in a strange space culturally - lurking in modern music's attic like an ageing mad uncle whom everyone agrees was a genius, but hardly anyone still listens to. (Outside of academia, which is its own world.)



It still exists under the moniker 'new music' and even has shows happening (e.g. https://www.bayimproviser.com/calendar.aspx)
