Dennis Young - Synthesis

Release: April 27th, 2018

Dennis Young is best known as the percussionist of the New York band LIQUID LIQUID, which is known for their piece "Cavern" from 1983, which in turn became very well known because Grandmaster Flash sampled it and used it as the basis for their hit "White Lines" But Young was more than just a member of the band, he produced plenty of his own music, much of it reflecting his passion for analog electronics.

„Synthesis“ is the follow up to „Wave“. In 2016 Bureau B released “Wave”, a collection of pieces Young had issued on cassettes between 1985–1988. “Synthesis”, by contrast, features tracks from 1984–1988 which have never been previously released. At the time Dennis Young used an assortment of analog synthesizers to create the music you will hear on this recording.
