First light on the frozen pine
Energy stirred where it shines
The ice of the night begins its trip
dancing on the wind, drip, drip, drip

First Light on The Frozen Pine

Doug Lynner, a.k.a. synthesizerman,  was editor/publisher of the seminal synthesizer magazine, Synapse. He attended the California Institute of the Arts where his primary mentors were Harold Budd, Morton Subotnick and Leonid Hambro.

He is a founding member of the synthpop bands Invisible Zoo, Moebius and LEM and is a radio host on FlashbackAlternatives.com with his monthly show, Doug Lynner's World of Noise.

My music is born from simple tools: free synth and drum machine apps on mobile phones, free or low-cost software on PC. I chose this path to demonstrate that you don't need huge budgets or high-tech studios to create quality sound: all you need is an ear, passion, and a desire to experiment. My quest is to give voice to the imagination with tools accessible to everyone, transforming limitations into possibilities. Because music belongs to those who dare, not those who spend.
