Episode description

The first of a two-parter series on the wizards of the synthesizer. We hone in on the 70’s and 80’s and pluck out the troo nerds and flush them down the rabbit hole one by one. What are we after here? Easy. Just picture someone sitting down in front of a rack of analog synths and not emerging from that spot for three weeks. 

We get into everything from progressive electronic music to soundtrack composers to minimalists to krautrock to early breakbeat shit. All of these bleeps and bloops turned out to be insanely influential to the advent of electronic music, film scoring, cosmic jammy music, every genre that ends with the word “wave”, and much much more (maybe). 

Stay subscribed because Part II is forthcoming: Synth Wizards (The Students: 1990’s - Now).
