Before this whole global pandemic thing kicked off, right at the end of January 2020 before we’d even heard of the concept of social distancing, Dua Lipa dropped a catchy synth-pop toe-tapper which was all about getting “Physical”. Sharing the same name as Olivia-Newton John’s 1981 track, the world of 80’s aerobics ...

The human voice - possibly our oldest instrument, shaped through centuries of evolution, and now shaped using FRMS synthesizer in our latest ‘from scratch’ sound design explorative tutorial. In this week’s video, Lucas takes a trio of samples of his own voice then with the help of FRMS multi-layered synthesis, turns...

In our latest FRMS ‘from scratch’ tutorial, we really have gone back to basics and stripped things back, using just an electric guitar as our starting point. In this video we’re looking at the possibilities of bringing a little FM synthesis into the mix, a crucial part of this being the amount. While FRMS is capable...

It’s one of those 80’s synth-pop lead riffs that is forever tied to the preset/patch being used to play it, the two married together in our memories. The hook from Bronski Beat’s ‘Smalltown boy’ has a catchy simplicity, such that it treads the line somewhere between melody and arpeggio. Its pleasant musical phrasing...

We’re back with another FRMS ‘from scratch’ tutorial video and this week we really do have two different, unrelated/random objects as sample sources. Here at Imaginando we’re lovers of both cookies and also looking our best, so it wasn’t too much of a stretch to find an empty cookies tin and a hairdryer lying around...

Taken from his debut album ‘Built from glass’, Chet Faker’s confusingly titled track ‘1998’ was first released as a single in May 2014. Very positively received by both music critics and fans at the time, the track’s popularity continues to grow as more and more people outside of the ‘Faker news’ bubble discover it...

Each video we encourage you to search out the unconventional when looking for sonic inspiration, by sampling whatever takes our fancy. This week...

By the time we reached the 20th century and the advent of the electronic age, sound creation had been elevated into a science in its own right. By now, we had a plethora of new techniques with which to craft new sounds and instruments. The invention of computing and digital-signal processing would truly revolutionis...

Have you ever wondered what happens when you cross granular synthesis with FM, add a little subtractive synthesis and then apply it in four courses?Whatever the answer, Imaginando FRMS is the result of this merger operation.FRMS simply stands for "frames".But can you really use granular oscillators for FM?

Sheffield, England, has produced a fair amount of electronic-pop partnerships and acts over the years, from the synth-pop and new wave of 80’s groups like The Human League and Heaven 17, to the early 2000’s funky, disco-house flavoured offerings of today’s featured artist Moloko. Founded in 1994 and disbanded ten ye...
