TSC13: Synth Wizards (The Students: 1990's - 2020)
Listen now
Description
The second episode in a two-part series on the wizards of the synthesizer with a focus on those artists twisting knobs in the 1990’s - 2020. Analog gurus like John Carpenter, Eno, Tangerine Dream, Suzanne Ciani, and Vangelis produced plenty of copy-cat fetishists but only a few spiritual protegees. The 90’s brought with it the advent of hybrid rigs thanks to digital signal processing. But more tools in the toolbox ≠ synth slappers. And what monster would totally abandon the celestial warmth of analog gear? Here, we turn up our nose at the synthwave tag on bandcamp - opting to hear how synthesizer sounds have evolved into territories the original synth wizards may have never envisioned. Follow @thesoniccloth on Instagram to grab the tracklistHit a dude up @ [email protected] to my chip fund @ https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/thesoniccloth
