"Because I’ve nothing else here for you and just because it’s easier than the truth. Oh, if there’s nothing else that I can do-oo, I’ll fly for yooooooooou." Oh, Spandau Ballet, where would you have been without your synthesizer? Would you have been a few lonely dandies with nothing but a sax and a heart full of sad?
Now more than 40 years old, the synthesizer is the most influential instrument in music today. Even Thomas Dolby, Herbie Hancock, Howard Jones and Stevie Wonder thought so in 1985 when they came together to celebrate it in this masterpiece.**There’s someone else on the scene who is out to celebrate the synth in her own way. Seja Vogel is the latest addition to mega-band Regurgitator and she knows her synthesizers. Each felt synthesizer is hand crafted to suit your synthy needs. From Moog, to Yamaha, these babies are all wired up with knobs and everything!
