Synthpop Symphony 341 RSDH– The Past, Present & Future of Synth-Driven Music
This week, Synthpop Symphony takes you on a two-hour journey through the evolution of electronic music.
Hour 1 begins with an extended New Music Spotlight featuring INXS with the Parralox remix of “Don’t Change,” Tommy Countach’s take on the Phil Collins classic “Another Day in Paradise,” VXhRR with “Kick the Dead,” and the new Above & Beyond Club Mix of “When You Believe.”
Then we head back to the ’80s for an extended Mini-Mix featuring Yazoo, Prince and Simple Minds before moving into a Modern Synth Set with De/Vision, Anna Marx and Piston Damp.
We’ll also explore the Retro Revival with Brighter Than a Thousand Suns, Foreign Affaire and Positronic—three artists creating new music with the unmistakable sound and spirit of the ’80s.
In Hour 2, Matt Williams takes over the decks for Sinister Disco Vol. 22: a nonstop mix exploring the future of synth-driven dance music through Italo disco, Italo dance, synthwave, electropop and modern club sounds.
Featuring music from Blixx 86, Ballet Mecanico, Hazell Dean, Italoconnection, Linda Jo Rizzo, Solarstone, Kasablanca, Jordan Nocturne, Thessla, Dead or Alive and more.
Two hours of new music, remixed classics and future-facing electronic dance music.
