Vintage Synthesizers

Stuart plays modern records that use vintage synths and the originals that inspired them. Chamber pop from Soap & Skin, funky Somalian grooves and uplifting doom from A-Sun Amissa.

Stuart plays modern records that use vintage synths and the originals that inspired them. In the late 1960s analogue synthesisers entered the market for professional musicians, the leading manufacturers being Moog, Korg, Buchla and Yamaha. Stuart looks back to the seminal works of early pioneers Wendy Carlos, Isao Tomito and the 鈥楰ing of Kit鈥� Vangelis, and modern records by Stereolab, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Matt Berry that have taken influence from them.

Also on the show, chamber pop from Soap & Skin, funky Somalian grooves and uplifting doom from A-Sun Amissa.
