(Note that this is from 15 year old clip originally from XLR8R TV covering a street performance by The Glitch Mob, not from Superbooth. It's famously been sampled by Skrillex in "Rock 'n' Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain)" in 2010.)

You can listen to some Syntrax tracks here (my favorite is King Tut)…
There's a couple of Kyma Pacamara Ristetto on eBay at the moment. One side of me says I should get one and review it. A larger side of me says you already know it's just going to be MaxMSP for fancy people.
You are probably asking what the fuck is a Kyma Pacamara Ristetto and does it come with pumpkins spice? And that's a good question. #synth
I found this amazing #synthwave (and adjacent genres) artist, #Caspro. You can purchase their entire bandcamp discography for like 10 bucks (22 releases, mostly full length albums!). Total ear candy. Easiest music purchase I've ever made in my life. Since most of this music is instrumental, I'll be jamming this while coding for the foreseeable future.
Cherry Audio does it again, out with yet another classic recreation.
"In 1979, the pioneers at ARP Instruments began researching and developing one of the most ambitious synthesizer designs of that time [...] a 16-voice polyphonic marvel, controlled by a microprocessor, with aftertouch and advanced signal routing and modulation."
Here's the weekly digest thread of my #OPM post: 5 writeups of new (to you, probably) artists and #music for your listening pleasure. #Rock, several flavors of #ambient and #NewAge and more await you within!
Of course, you can read the whole thing, with longer writeups than fit in a single post, here:
Seven tracks of classic-style ambient – lots of #synth washes, an inoffensive arpeggiated synth here and there, the very occasional hint of a beat – each tied to a separate mood. The sound design is solid, showcasing a decent variety of typically ambient textures, with the occasional dip into #synthwave. In true #ambient fashion, this one is easy to get lost in – put it on, turn it down and zone out while it does its thing.
"Weeklybeats is a 52 week long music project in which artists compose and publicly release 1 song a week for the entire year.
