Synchestra

About

Synchestra is an experimental electronic and industrial music project that emerged during the early 1980s underground tape culture. The project is documented through a series of cassette releases on the Ed Van Fleet label, beginning with "The Nature of the Game" in 1981, followed by "Ideas Vol.1" in 1987. These releases showcase the artist's exploration of synthesizer-based soundscapes and experimental electronic composition, positioning Synchestra within the broader context of industrial and experimental music communities of that era. The project attracted enough attention to warrant coverage in Eurock Magazine, including both an interview and a tape overview, indicating recognition within specialized underground music circles. Limited documentation exists regarding specific personnel or detailed discography, but the work represents a significant contribution to the cassette-based experimental music scene that flourished during the 1980s. Synchestra's approach to synthesizer experimentation reflects the DIY ethos and technological exploration characteristic of independent electronic music during this period.
