DulceLabs.com Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 It's brief, but some good synth talk in here: http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/stranger-things-soundtrack-survive-interview My fav quote: "Every synth has a magical power, if you wanna call it that. Every synthesizer can do something really well, no matter what it is, even its the cheapest, shittiest thing. It will shine in some aspect." If you haven't seen the show yet (WATCH IT! - It oozes early 80's analog synth goodness), here's the main theme: [video:youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpHNlx0pPIU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthoid Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Listening now. Tasty stuff. When an eel hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a Moray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobadohshe Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 A little confused Scott. Your post seemed to imply you were quoting some interview with the composers? Do you have a link to that interview? I did click on your link to the extended theme and am digging the 10 minute version. Also saw the soundtrack is available on iTunes. YES!

ABECK Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Loved the series...in no small part due to the soundtrack. Very authentic analog goodness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dje31 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I watched the series. And it always reminded me of John Carpenter's soundtracks, where he'd often write and perform much, if not all, of it, using analog synths ( because back then that's all there was, for the most part ) . Often very sparse, sparing, and minimalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobadohshe Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I purchased the soundtrack and have been listening all morning. I drove to do some errands in the late AM and enjoyed driving around with this menacing synth music pulsing underneath. It made my neighborhood seem a lot more sinister.

DulceLabs.com Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 I binge-watched it this weekend and really enjoyed the show and music. Highyl recommended. Yeah I did the same thing. Made the stupid mistake of starting it at 11 at night. Long story short, I was up all night till the last episode. Worth it. Anywho, here's a neat demo on how to make some of the sounds: [video:youtube] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
