If anyone is interested in this kind of stuff, Electric Sound by Joel Chadabe is an awesome book on the history of electronic music. It talks about musique concrete techniques and much more. I definitely recommend it.
Also the Frank Zappa album, "Lumpy Gravy" features a lot of musique concrete.
If you're interested at all in early electronic music I'd recommend "The San Francisco Tape Music Center: 1960s Counterculture and the Avant-Garde." It's a really interesting period in American music history that doesn't get much attention (http://www.amazon.com/Francisco-Tape-Music-Center-Counterculture/dp/0520256174).
Another one is "Electric Sound: The Past and Promise of Electronic Music," great comprehensive book but only worth it to buy used (http://www.amazon.com/Electric-Sound-Promise-Electronic-Music/dp/0133032310/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421354001&sr=8-1&keywords=electric+sound+the+past+and+promise+of+electronic+music).
