I did some brief reading about the theramin, the instrument invented by Leon Theramin in 1928. The post on Wikipedia named several sci-fi sound tracks that the instrument is used on, as well as concert music from the avante-garde and new music genres, and by the psychedelic rock group, "Hawkwind". I looked up "Hawkwind" and they DO incorporate lots of synthesized sounds into their music. The Wiki post names them one of the earliest "space rock" groups, forming in 1969 in England, and notes the work as a precursor to punk rock.
