Increasingly detached from the original punk formula, the modern and arty youth of the early eighties set itself to jettison an artform that had lost much of the nihilistic and exhilarating energy of its halcyon days, stuck, as it was, in an endless and noisy regression. No Future was the motto of an artform without a cause that no longer echoed with the mindset of the time. Disheartened but eager to experiment and create, a new wave of French musician followed the beacon of Jacno’s seminal 79 hit “Rectangle”, a visionary, digital coup de grâce ,courtesy of a former punk which dealt the Rickenbacker and Fender era a fatal blow. The cold and robot-like bips of analogic keyboards took over. Casio, Korg MS 10, Arp Omni were the new paraphernalia of the növö generation. The ideal conveyers of its retro-futurist elegance and self-professed cold arrogance. They were pinnacles and symbols which turned as potent a fetiche as the electric guitar in the fifties or the laptop in the nineties.BIPP recalls the glory of a selected few. The cream of the crop of the shooting stars and cult band that followed in the footsteps of Kas Product, Mathematiques Modernes or Charles de Goal.

This time, EA DICE asked composer duo Johan Skugge and Yucca Rintamyaki transform dark minimalist electronic sound into something more organic, in connection with which the artists have added to the arsenal of synthesizers (Korg MS-20, Roland Juno-6, ESI Mopho Keyboard, ESI Evolver, ARP Avatar, Modular System, etc.) the new instruments: cello, tuba and pedal steel guitar. The release includes some pyatideyati minutes of music from the game

Equinoxe is a powerful virtual analogue synthesizer dedicated to recreating the works of Jean Michel Jarre. Jarre used an amazing range of powerful analogue synthesizers including instruments by Arp, Korg, Moog, Oberheim, Roland, Sequential Circuit, Yamaha and many more. These days, it would be nearly impossible to build such a vast collection of instruments and it would cost a fortune! The SuperWave Equinoxe can accurately replicate the sounds used to create Jarre’s classic works such as Oxygene, Equinoxe, Magnetic Fields and Rendez-Vous. We supply a full range of presets and a selection of tracks in Cubase and MIDI file formats demonstrating the accuracy achieved by this powerful musical instrument. Equinoxe 4 and Magnetic Fields 2 are supplied with the trial version and 12 additional tracks are supplied via email when purchased. The SuperWave Drums Bundle is also provided free of charge when purchasing the Equinoxe synthesizer.

This is the big one, nearly a year in the making and made by some of the hottest talent on the scene. Sonic Academy presents - 'Synthwave Sample Pack' An almighty 4GB of Arps, Bass, Drums, Pads, Vocals, MIDI files and 5 Massive Construction Kits.

Quindar is a collaboration between Grammy Award-winning musician/producer Mikael Jorgensen of Wilco and art historian and curator James Merle Thomas. Combining archival research with musical composition and performance, the duo uses historically significant audio recordings and film to create experimental electronic music and synchronized video projections. The duo derives its name, Quindar, from the ubiquitous transmission beeps heard during NASA’s early manned spaceflight missions, and their first LP, Hip Mobility, is built from elaborate use of audio recordings from NASA archives of that golden era.
