Per complementare la bibliografia del nostro campo che è stato presentato nell'ultima edizione del Computer Music Journal, presentiamo la discografia (necessariamente incompleta) dei principali lavori di computer music. Un criterio importante per questa lista era che il materiale è disponibile attraverso i canali commerciali normali. Abbiamo escluso così molte registrazioni importanti e degne che sono fuori stampa, o che possono essere ordinati soltanto direttamente dai compositori o dai loro editori.

Esistono diverse importanti serie di musica elettronica ed elettroacoustica su CD. La serie Wergo Computer Music Currents", la serie CDCM (Consorzio per la Distribuzione di Computer Music) e la serie di "Culture Electroniche" di Bourges su incisioni Le Chant Du Monde sono facilmente disponibili nei negozi o per ordine diretto. Le altre serie, come "Canadian Diffusion i Media CDs", la francese i INA/GRM o "Bridgre Records" dagli Stati Uniti sono distribuite internazionalmente.
