Synthesizers and synthesists lend me your ears. In this episode I delve into my discovery and consequent love for the future of music, synthesizers. Electronic music can be confusing but it’s easy to be drawn in nonetheless. After studying and learning the medium you learn quickly that electronic music is impossible to predict and I love that fact.
The album Weather Report finally got my attention on to the ARP 2600, which at the time I woefully couldn’t afford, but luckily I was able to get the ARP 2300. The ARP Odyssey worked wonderfully but I needed that 2600. So I traded up and the rest is history.
I get into it in this episode on the workings of the modules and the gurus of the medium over the years that I admired and learned from.
And of course at the end I do a question round where you will certainly learn some things you didn’t know before. Enjoy!

It's so much fun to hear the stories and relive the times. I think I was at a gig you were suppose to play on when the "immigration" issue happened... and somehow you made it to the gig anyway! Amazing. And thank you for recording "Life and Times of Harvey Milk" at my studio. How you got me to play the English Horn on that still amazes me. Thank you for introducing and inspiring me to play those classic synths (which no plug in comes close to emulating). You are the master :) As I enter my 40th year of having OTR Studios, I will always be eternally grateful for the encouragement you gave me to pursue a career in audio engineering. Miss you, my old friend! Cheers !!!

Thanks so much for sharing these stories! I’ve met Art Lande a few times and have listened to Joe Zawinul a lot. I can’t wait to listen to all the records you mentioned!

I thought I wanted to become a guitar player, but then I heard ARP 2600 and my life was never the same again.

Hi Mark. I saw you perform at Berklee Square in 1986? I think. Not with Missing Persons. Also with David Sylvian on Secrets of the Beehive tour. I met Joe Z when I was an intern at KJAZ, and I also loved Zawinul's great synth creations. Always enjoyed your music, as well as the recent updates on You Tube. Cheers!
