Tune In     Song History
|
Some time ago TONN Recordings came across an analogue sound so exciting and authentic that it completely captured our attention. David P. author of one of the most charismatic synth sounds today, whose debut album for TONN Recordings is an unmissable master class in minimal synth.
From his birth place in Tokyo, to New York and now Germany, Nao Katafuchi’s sound has travelled across many terrains in music. A dichotomy of tight staccato beats overlaid with sweeping gestural melodies, he leaves an electronic imprint on the mind of the listener, transferring a world of lyrical possibilities from his imagination to ours, bringing us synth full of expansive romantic sensibility.
Here’s the second release from FOKKER, a solo synth-pop project from an undisclosed location in the UK.
With its infectious bass and poignant synth lines, interwoven with themes around the complexity of modern day living in an often impersonal world, Crystalline Stricture’s pure analogue sound is beautifully constructed and played from the heart.
With so much music being produced today, it’s easy for one thing to sound like another. But that is something that never comes to mind when listening to the synth of Zoltan Freitag. Never derivative, every moment of every track is filled with rich synth textures oscillating around dynamic tempos. This is synth to lift the heart, synth to luxuriate in. |
