Matt Williams Synthpop Symphony – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Synthpop Symphony 333R1 a special repeat of EP300 – The Past, Present & Future of Synth-Driven Music

It was a milestone in November 2025 when Synthpop Symphony celebrated Episode 300 — featuring the past, present, and future of synth-driven music. We kick things off with releases from Depeche Mode with “In The End”, Duran Duran - “Shadows on your Side” on the Dance Macabre album, and Marina with “Key to the Castle”, plus an ’80s Mini-Mix packed with classics from Yazoo, Prince, and Simple Minds.

Then it’s all about the next generation of new music from  Positronic, De/Vision, Anna Marx, Brighter Than a Thousand Suns and Foreign Affaire along with the not so classic 2022 standout from Piston Damp. And in the second hour, get ready for Sinister Disco Vol. 22 — a high-energy, one-hour mix exploring the future of synth-driven dance music, featuring Italo Dance, Synthwave, and Electropop favorites from Hazell Dean, Italoconnection, Kasablanca, Linda Jo Rizzo, and more.
