I am also still learning about it too but as far as i know it is actually Electronic Avantgarde (as a genre) but there are these French musicians from the late 60s to early 80s that really pushed the limits of it and experimented with the genre heavily and created huge quantities of material/releases. But yeah the revival of it was the 70s. This era and the music it produced also sometimes labeled as French Cosmic. Because Music released a very nice compilation album in two volumes as well in 2013.
