Future Music | September 2017
LO-FI WORKSHOP
The majority of software instruments, multi sampled libraries, ROMplers and even today’s new hardware synthesisers all output signals that are more polished than ever before. Outside of the underground electronic music scenes, tastes lean towards the uber-bright, loud, crystal-clear mixes we associate with cutting-edge pop, dance and rock in 2017.

From the tape-splicing techniques pioneered by Delia Derbyshire and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop back in the 1950s, through to Kraftwerk’s primitive robo-pop, and onto The Prodigy’s sampler-driven rave anthems and Aphex Twin’s distorted breakbeat-slicing, underground dance music has always adopted a rebellious DIY aesthetic.
