This week on Wellington Rocks we go 80's with local synthwave act , StrayLight.
The project of keyboardist/guitarist Alastair Parkkali, StrayLight was started after his stints in bands Starfig Newtown and Lady Parts as a bedroom electronic project.
Since then StrayLight has released three EPs, two albums and a single. StrayLights latest EP "Tuned To A Dead Channel" is the best produced yet, featuring a collaboration with US synthwave artist Commander Supreme.
We talk about what synthwave is, 80's nostalgia,, production techniques and how technology has democratised music.
Wellington Rocks is bought to you by Access Radio and NZ On Air.
