At the moment we have:
Analog subtractive
Granular
Physical modelling
FM
PD
Additive
VA
Sample based
Wavetable
Neuronal bollox
etc etc....
What else is there to do? What they can do is improve these already established concepts....but more to the point...I think people need to approach synths ina different way.
I think people in electronic music use waayyyy to much synth and it all becomes a bit cliched and boring. I think alot of the music which has a couple of synth parts and acoustic stuff is far more interesting. But a wall of softsynth makes for very dull listening IMHO.
So SCREAM's advice is.....dont use too much synth...but the synths u do use....make it count in large amounts (oh i do love DM)

The SynthWizard has some advice - Back in the 1980's music was better, TV was better, films were better. Not to mention fashion.... Let me help you relive the past with some classic 80's sounds from my vintage synth collection....
