Guides

Megan Iacobini de Fazio with the first of a two-parter on African synths. A ton of great stuff here but a particular favorite is Noir et Blanc

Japanese noise from Jon Dale who has really dug deep here, even if this stuff doesn’t appeal to you (it didn’t much to me at first) you might be as surprised as I was, it really draws you in
