Everyone loves hot chicks. Even other chicks love hot chicks, regardless of sexual preference. But what’s better than hot chicks? Hot chicks who play hot fuckin synths. Nothing gets me goin’ like a total babe laying down some fat synth bass that just destroys. That’s why I salute these two ladies in the first edition of this series of blogs: Hot Chicks Who Play Synths.
First up: Emily Haines of synth-pop-rock band Metric. Not only is she a total blonde babe that is reminiscent of Blondie herself, but she plays a fucking SCI PRO ONE!!! One of the fattest analog bass synths ever made, this monster of a synth is a toal classic and it does my heart good to see some analog synthesis going on during the show.
Next: Nancy Whang of LCD Soundsystem and The Juan Maclean! This babe is for you if you dig the Asian persuasion but she also rocks three synths AND an MPC during LCD shows! She really knows her way around the knobs and those babies. If she weren’t laying down hot synth lines for LCD, their shows would sound empty without her, and for that, we honor you through this post!
