Plug-in Boutique have released VirtualCZ - a new plug-in inspired by an iconic series of digital synthesisers made in the 1980s.  
VirtualCZ uses Phase Distortion - which is similar to FM Synthesis but easier to program. It can make great pads, leads, bass, percussion and RAVE ORGAN sounds that will fit into a wide variety of genres. Many people fondly remember the CZ synths and they have become retro-classics that are highly sought after, having been used on countless techno, house, rave and synth-pop records in the late 80s and early 90s. Lots of artists still use them today for their unique sounds.
The synthesis engine of the original hardware is modelled in the plug-in which can load and transmit CZ SYSEX patches, but the plug-in goes beyond the hardware to offer new sound possibilities and usability features. It’s much more fun to edit, since all the important synthesis parameters have their own control. It includes things not found on the originals such as switchable envelope generators (ADSR or 8-Stage MSEG) and Unison modes.
Developed by Oli Larkin (www.olilarkin.co.uk) with graphics by Philippe Decuyper (www.eareckon.com), VirtualCZ will ship with a library of great presets offering both retro and modern sounds by Plug-in Boutique's sound designers and artists.
VirtualCZ comes in VST2, VST3, Audio Unit and AAX plug-in formats plus Standalone app for Mac and PC. 

VirtualCZ is available to purchase now exclusively from www.pluginboutique.com for £59 / $99.

Once the odd-duck of LA's late 80's rock underground, Lyford has more recently been heard creating electronic environments, having finally overdosed on Eno’s full catalog. Currently on a personal quest to reconcile the trippy synthedelia of Jean-Jacques Perry with pre-techno Kraftwerk.

In an alternate reality, Lyford cycles between guitar, keyboard, and vox duties in Psyattica, a "post-punk prog-pop psychedelic power trio" dedicated to fusing punk sensibilities with progressive chaotic time signatures and jazzy chromatic harmonics. Or not.

French Disco, and so, so much more.

"You have spoken the answer.
A child searches far sometimes
Into the red dust
    On a dark rose leaf
And so you have gone far
    For the answer is:
        Silence."
-Carl Sandburg

Ambient, minimalist classical, and electronic music.
