The Synths Of ‘Stranger Things’


Reader Nathan Bernier, a reporter at Austin NPR station KUT, let us know about this brief video look at the synth gear of S U R V I V E – the group behind the soundtrack to the summer sci fi hit series, Stranger Things.

Bernier caught up with the group as they were practicing in a garage for live performances. The video is part of a story KUT published on the Austin synth scene.
“I wish the video were more detailed and thorough,” notes Bernier, “but my photography department tries to produce short videos for a general audience.”
While the video doesn’t go into as much depth as Synthtopia readers might like, it offers an overview of the group’s gear, which includes some classic analog synthesizers, but also a lot of relatively affordable vintage synths and modern gear.
The Stranger Things soundtrack is available now in two volumes – Volume 1 and Volume 2 – via Amazon and other retailers.
