Minimal Synth

Minimal Synth is a music genre that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, characterized by its use of analog synthesizers, drum machines, and sparse, repetitive melodies. With roots in post-punk and new wave, it emphasizes a DIY aesthetic, often featuring haunting vocals and a cold, mechanical sound that reflects the era's fascination with futurism and technology. Notable for its raw, lo-fi production, Minimal Synth captures a unique blend of emotion and minimalistic electronic innovation.
