    This musical style isn't for everyone, and it isn't anything new either. As Texan producer John Bergin notes, “It's a reappropriation of past sounds to make a new trend.“ But if this sounds like something that interests you, Iván Castell's 'The Rise of the Synths' is worth 80 minutes or so of your time. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-the-rise-of-the-synths-neon-pulsing-bass-and-heaps-of-80s-nostalgia...
