Electronic Projects for Musicians is a b-sides and rarities compilation album by The Apples in Stereo. A release date is currently set for April 1, 2008 under the Simian Records, Yep Roc Records, and Elephant 6 label.[1] It is currently available for pre-order on Yep Roc's official website, where it can also be streamed in its entirety.[2]

Announced by frontman Robert Schneider in May 2007, Schneider described the album as having "all of our non-LP material since [Fun Trick Noisemaker] came out"[3] — a time period that spans 12 years. He also said that the album would have many or all of a number of rare tracks by the band that are frequently posted on the band's official message board, which include dozens of songs spanning the Apples discography.

The song "Dreams", an unfinished recording intended for release on the band's 1997 LP Tone Soul Evolution, was re-recorded for Electronic Projects for Musicians.

In August 2007, a contest was announced in which fans could remix the song "Can You Feel It?", with over 20 master tracks from the original song being made available for download. The version of the song submitted by the grand prize winner will appear on the digital release of Electronic Projects for Musicians.[4]
