Hat tip to my buddy Andy Bakun from ThwartedEfforts for this one. Thomas Dolby, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder and some other dude (Sorry other dude), strut thier stuff with a bunch of syths. 1) This is some hot shit. 2) In 1985 this was revolutionary. This was a showcase of how far we've come in music. Sure it sounded like ass, but it was brand new ass! Luckily we got most of the synth craze out of our systems and have grown up a bit. Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for a synth. One of my old bosses gave me an Arp Axxe after working a summer job for him in Texas (Yeah summer in Texas, good freaking idea). That thing was the coolest toy I ever owned. I learend all about Synth music from that thing. But now I've graduated into the hipster musak with gentle horns soft guitars and songs that make you feel WAYS about STUFF. Word Homie. Check it:

 

Oh yeah, aparently there's some controversy as to weather or not some of this musak was pre-recorded. Anyone know anything about that? I'm mean there's obviously some samples in there, and they prolly set up the drums ahead of time, but so what? Right? That's the point when you've got a machine making music for you. Hi ho.
