On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Tony Rolando! I first learned about Tony through his incredible solo work, not realizing that he was the co-founder of one of the most interesting synthesizer companies of the last decade or so - Make Noise Music. Putting it all together, the depth and unique scope of his sonic explorations and compositional approach made more sense. His latest, “Imagine A Dolphin Dreaming,” is the latest chapter in that story. After digging into the album and our mutual love of aqueous sounds, we talk about Rockwell creating a timeless banger, unequivocally loving US Maple, Caterina Barbieri’s mind-bending approach, the fingertapping-to-arpeggio pipeline, Sinead, Smashing Pumpkins, 90 Day Men, and more!Listen to all of Tony’s picks HERE“Imagine a Dolphin Dreaming”Tony on InstagramMake Noise MusicSong ListRockwell “Somebody’s Watching Me”Billie Eilish “When The PArty’s Over”Newcleus “Jam On It”The White Stripes "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground”US Maple “Letter to ZZ Top”Harold Budd & Brian Eno "A Stream with Bright Fish”Oneohtrix Point Neverw/ Iggy Pop "The Pure and the Damned”90 Day Men “Dialed In”Catarina Barbieri “Fantas”XOR “Lazy Heat”Sinead O’Connor “Nothing Compares 2 U”Prince “When Doves Cry”Van Halen “Panama”Smashing Pumpkins “To Sheila”Prince “Pop Life”Songs of Our Lives is a podcast series hosted by Brad Rose of Foxy Digitalis that explores the music that's made us and left a certain mark.
