Cortini, Alessandro & Merzbow - Untitled

Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails) and Japanese noise legend Masami Akita (Merzbow) bask in their mutual love for the EMS Synthi, a British synthesizer from the early 70s, notorious for its patch matrix, portability and distinct tone. Astonishingly, these two disparate artists meld into a single sound as they flex the analog circuitry of the EMS Synthi in new ways, giving this classic synth a modern workout and proving that, in capable hands, a 40 year-old analog synthesizer is a tool for the ages.
