>i like synths>i like the linn drum and other drum machines>i like lush productionThe 80s were based, you can keep your nothing but electric guitar + electric bass guitar + live drums bands to yourself.
>>130655772>The 80s were based, you can keep your nothing but electric guitar + electric bass guitar + live drums bands to yourself.now try playing the song live without all the studio tinsel and you just end up with a couple of guitars and a drum kit.
Who are these guys? The picture reminds of the band hurts. I got into them but cant remember when or where the origin of it is. Where do they rate?
>>130655792Not OP but who the fuck cares? Live performance always sucks. The song is perfected on the album, that's what I want, a superhuman performance. That was the whole point of recording.
>>130655836The Dolphin Brothers (Richard Barbieri and Steve Jansen).
>>130655792you dont think synth based bands could tour?
>>130656242Quite a few what?
>>130656008Thanks. Where do i get started with them? Is synth its own genre?
>>130656497They have one album, anon.
>>130656497they're best known as members of the band japan, idk why op is acting like their one-off side project was their claim to fame.
>>130656764I'm not, i'm just answering anon's questions.
>>130655772that era is cursed with poor mixing and mastering
>ditches synths and states they wish they had never been invented>music transcends to elite status
>>130657360>In terms of the first two albums and the live field, synths are simply an economic measure. Beyond that, I absolutely hate synthesizers. To me, the only thing that was ever good about them was the fact that they gave you large areas of sound to work with; apart from that they're really bad - horrible. I can take their existence from a live point of view now, but if they didn't exist, I'd be delightedWhat is his fucking problem
>>13065577280s mainstream music production was fuckin ass
>>130657728sounds like what a try hard from the 90's would say, like a failed new wave singer who would switch to thrash metal riffs to look more street cred
>>130655967have you ever even seen live music?
>>130657728dogshit opinion
Limiting your choices in instrumentation makes your songwriting infinitely better
OP here, i chnged my mind, fuck synths, fuck electronic music, in fact fuck electricity all together, only completely acoustic music.is the truth.
