Just went down a rabbit hole of YT videos about the lives of actresses in old Hollywood, and came out the other side watching Wendy Carlos demonstrate how to operate her synthesizers. I now have a massive crush on her.

#As someone who makes heavy use of synths in my music; I’m enamored with how she explains everything #idk just something about a person working with a giant wall of computers and machinery to make music is wild to me #like taming some kind of giant beast #One of the reasons why you see me talking about The Shout (1978) to the point where it has become mildly obnoxious #I don’t give a fuck about the story; I’m only there for three things:#1.) John Hurt violently rolling down a hill and proceeding to deliver the most unintentionally hilarious line ever #2.) Sensory overload whump #3.) The most beautiful collection of retro sound equipment to have ever been operated onscreen in a movie #(mostly the third one)
