Ep 91: The Midnight TAL U-NO lies

10.11.2026 · 57 Min.

Shownotes

This time, we’re joined by synthwave royalty The Midnight for an entertaining, pan-continental edition of My Forever Studio. Tim McEwan and Tyler Lyle tackle our studio challenge tentatively at first, but ultimately share the secrets behind their drum sounds, retro-futuristic production, and share the six items that they couldn’t live without.

In this episode, find out how they keep their sessions running smoothly from opposite sides of the United States, how much of their process is “in the box” and which $50 plugins bring their distinctive synthwave sound to life.

Season 8 of the My Forever Studio Podcast is supported by Audient, and the impressive new Horizon range of audio interfaces.
