Synthpop Symphony 316!

This week I’m bringing you a true symphony of synth — from brand-new music to Hi-NRG remixes and a deep dive into modern independent artists keeping the scene alive. We’ve got fresh tracks from Kon Kan with My Mediation, Kebu & Johan Becker with Everyone’s a Story, Melllo’s A Sign, Massive Ego & Boy George with Broken Tomorrow, and Andermay turning up the drama with I’d Like to See the World Burn.

In School of Synth, I sit down with Michael MacDonald from Positronic for an exclusive conversation and first listen to his new LP Interstellar with 3 exclusive tracks Rise, Glow, and Never Ending Story!

Then we crank up the energy with a high-powered mini mix featuring Depeche Mode, Bronski Beat, and Duran Duran before diving into Retro Remixes from Red Flag, Frida, Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears, Information Society, and A Flock of Seagulls.

Turn it up. Share it. And keep connecting the world through music. 🎹🔥
