Our Take

Dennis Young's "Synthesis/Electronic Music 1984-1988" is a delightful trip down memory lane to a time when synthesizers ruled the airwaves. Young, best known as the marimba player for the legendary band Liquid Liquid, showcases his skills as a solo artist on this collection of electronic gems.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world of bouncing bass lines, shimmering synths, and infectious rhythms. Young's knack for crafting catchy melodies is on full display, with each track drawing you in and keeping you hooked until the very last note.

The album kicks off with the pulsating "Somerset Hills," a synth-heavy track that sets the tone for what's to come. From there, we are treated to a mix of ambient sounds, funky grooves, and experimental textures that showcase Young's versatility as a musician.

Tracks like "You Turn Me On" and "Oasis" are standout moments that will have you dancing around the room, while more introspective tracks like "Emerging Pulsar" and "Forgotten Past" provide a moment of reflection.

Overall, "Synthesis/Electronic Music 1984-1988" is a must-listen for fans of electronic music and anyone looking to add a bit of nostalgia to their playlist. Young's attention to detail and playful experimentation make this album a true delight from start to finish. So kick back, hit play, and let Dennis Young take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
