VA - Synth Instrumentals CD1+CD2 + VA - Synth Vocals CD3 (A Butterboy Compilation)

A synthesizer or synthesiser (often abbreviated to synth) is an electronic musical instrument that generates audio signals that may be converted to sound. Synthesizers may imitate traditional musical instruments such as piano, flute, vocals, or natural sounds such as ocean waves; or generate novel electronic timbres. They are often played with a musical keyboard, but they can be controlled via a variety of other devices, including music sequencers, instrument controllers, fingerboards, guitar synthesizers, wind controllers, and electronic drums.

Synthesizers were first used in pop music in the 1960s. In the late 1970s, synths were used in progressive rock, pop and disco. In the 1980s, the invention of the relatively inexpensive Yamaha DX7 synth made digital synthesizers widely available. 1980s pop and dance music often made heavy use of synthesizers. Synthesizers are used in genres such as pop, hip hop, metal, rock, dance, and contemporary classical music. (Wikipedia)

In the ‘50s and ‘60s, modular synthesizers added a spooky element to movie soundtracks or offered up a kitschy alternative to the usual pop instrumental fare. From the ‘70s on, composers and artists have embraced the sonic possibilities of the Moog and ARP 2600, blending their tones into disco pop, jazz, and progressive rock. Check out some early experiments with these unique soundmakers. 


Here are 50 Instrumental Synth Favorites (some long and some short) together with 25 tracks by Synth Bands and artists where the vocal are use to create anything from a moody to joyful sound. Give them a go.

  1. Sounds promising. I'd like to add one track for all synth instrumental lovers that happen not to know it: "Departure" by Michael Garrison, one of the most uplifting and strongest instrumental tracks I know.
