Apparently I did the first @SynthHero radio show on @NTSlive 10 years ago today! Time is oscillating wildly! Which has been your favourite SH mix from the past decade? Suzanne Ciani? Clint Mansell? Chris Carter? Orbital? Check them all out again here: https://t.co/x1lSYfwf9C 🎹

We are very sorry to hear of the passing of Peter Zinovieff, a visionary inventor and thinker, whose energy and passion for electronic sound helped shape the sound of the future with the portable EMS VCS3 and the monster Synthi 100.

Farewell to the great Peter Zinovieff (b.1933-2021) the British engineer and composer, whose EMS company made the VCS3 synthesiser in the late 1960s, an instrument that inspired generations. Into the sonic forever... https://t.co/fmnLwJBnvZ

I am very sad to see this news. I was fortunate enough to visit Peter at his home a number of years ago and conducted an in-depth interview about his life and work. He was fiercely intelligent, funny and infinitely curious about sound. Peter was one of a kind. A true genius.

The hugely influential synth pioneer Peter Zinovieff, has died aged 88. A couple of years ago, BBC Archive caught up with the great man and asked him about his 1968 appearance on Tomorrow’s World and what music would sound like in another 50 years time.

Mike Paradinas has also chosen the Yamaha DX11 as his #Synth of the Month. "It was the main workhorse of my early µ-Ziq material. It wasn't just the typical FM sounds that I loved, but it was also very good at woodwinds and pads." Read more about it at https://t.co/CLyfPagTZC

The @radiophonicwork was set up to satisfy the demand in the 50s for "radiophonic" sounds. Daphne Oram looked to new techniques such as tape manipulation to produce effects and music that were previously non-existent. Listen to their new exclusive mix >> https://t.co/CLyfPagTZC
