It was founded by physists, composers and computer scientists most of whom were involved in building the TIRFAC, the first Indian computer. <ref>Inspired by the visits of John Cage, David Tudor and other American composers to India</ref>, FSMR's experiments were built on combining Hindustani and Carnatic music with Electronics and Computers. A revolving array of composers and sound engineers worked at the FSMR.
