The Synth Revolution:
How Technology Transformed Music

December 2024

Tools used: SoundTrap (Spotify’s editing platform)

“Great job with this. You took a very large topic and provided a concise overview across the eras. The amount of information presented was perfect for the topic. It was interesting for me, someone who was familiar with the history of synthesizers and I think your content would be just as relevant to someone who previously knew nothing about the topic.

I enjoyed the clarity of your speaking voice and tone. The editing was also fantastic.

A+++”
