Ask.Audio Synth Stories Podcast

Welcome back to SynthStories... it's been 2 years since the last episode was broadcast and I'm so happy to return! We're back with a bang featuring a synth anthem from Belgian band GOOSE! Dave Martijn from Goose reveals the makings of the crazily addictive hook from Synrise, recreates it from scratch and explains how the anthem came into being using the iconic ARP Odyssey and their love of synthesisers in general.

In this episode of SynthStories Jade Rose from the US, recreates parts of her beautiful track, Amethyst, that can be found on her new album Moonstone. Jade has an interesting array of synths, modular synths, guitars and other gizmos - some that she’s built herself. Among the synths explored in this episode are the Arturia MicroBrute, Ambika and the Freestate FX modular in the Lawrence public library in Kansas, USA.

In this episode of SynthStories one of Brazil’s best-loved music exports, Wehbba, reveals his synth workflows on the headliner from his recent EP, Eclipse. Although originally written using an Arturia synth plugin, Webhha re-made the main hook after he met the Roland & Studio electronics SE-02 analog synthesizer.

Multi-award winning Budapest-based electronic musician, media and film score producer, Dani Karanyi, takes us deeper into the synth score of his latest album, Stardive. This album explores the interaction between AI and a Biologist in a post-apocalyptic world. Using the versatile and unique Dave Smith Instruments OB6 synthesizer, Dani recreates sections from the track Welcome Home Zeta from Stardive. The accompanying novel for Stardive is being released shortly as an ebook.
