Check out this video, profiling one of my favorite electronic music connoisseurs Veronica Vasicka, whose label Minimal Wave is doing a great job of releasing undiscovered, early synth gems from all over the world.
In the video, she discusses how Minimal Wave came to be, her role in it and the current crop of bands revisiting analog synth.
For those who are just beginning to discover the strange and beautiful world of rare, early synth-pop, you can download this excellent FREE Minimal Wave mix that Veronica recently put together for Stones Throw (now with an updated track-list). It’s a great primer and a nice preview of the forthcoming Minimal Waves Tapes produced by Veronica and Peanut Butter Wolf.
Also, be sure to catch Veronica’s weekly show on East Village Radio, Sundays from 6-8pm. Always a great listen.
