Diva

It’s not often you stumble upon an album quite like this one. A huge debt of thanks goes out to a fellow reader, Francis, for sharing Kazutoki Umezu’s Diva with me (the first of two, from him, I’ll share with you). I’m still grinning from end to end just looking at the credits of this album: Midori Takada, Ichiko Hashimoto, and Reichi, on an album that won’t appear in their respective discographies online (another good reason to never just rely on Discogs for your info!). A one off band featuring a truly pioneering group of Japanese female musicians, Diva must have meant something to all involved.

A ridiculously detailed Sound Design course about the world's most beautiful sounding synthesizer

Diva: Dinosaur Impersonating Virtual Analogue synthesizer. Diva captures the spirit of five decades of analogue synthesizers. Oscillators, filters, and envelopes from some of the greatest monophonic and polyphonic synths of yesteryear were meticulously modelled for unmatched analogue sound. Diva is more than a single synthesizer: Recreate an old favourite or mix-and-match modules to design your own unique hybrid.
