A sound synthesizer (usually abbreviated as "synthesizer" or "synth", also spelled "synthesiser") is an electronic musical instrument that generates electric signals that are converted to sound through instrument amplifiers and loudspeakers or headphones. Synthesizers may either imitate the still existing sounds (instruments, vocal, natural sound, etc.), or generate new electronic timbres not existing before. They are often played with a musical keyboard, but they can be controlled via a variety of other input devices, including music sequencers, instrument controllers, fingerboards, guitar synthesizers, wind controllers, and electronic drums. Synthesizers without built-in controllers are often called sound modules, and are controlled via MIDI or CV/Gate using a controller device.
Synthesizers use various methods to generate signal. Among the most popular waveform synthesis techniques are subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis, wavetable synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis, phase distortion synthesis, physical modeling synthesis and sample-based synthesis. Other less common synthesis types (see #Types of synthesis) include subharmonic synthesis, a form of additive synthesis via subharmonics (used by mixture trautonium), and granular synthesis, sample-based synthesis based on grains of sound, generally resulting in soundscapes or clouds.

Electric Six is a six-piece band from Detroit, Michigan. Their style has been described as a brand of rock music infused with elements of "Garage, disco, punk rock, new wave, and metal."

High Voltage" and "Gay Bar", and subsequently recorded eleven full-length albums: Fire, Señor Smoke, Switzerland, I Shall Exterminate Everything Around Me That Restricts Me from Being the Master, Flashy, KILL, Zodiac, Heartbeats and Brainwaves, Mustang, Human Zoo, and Bitch, Don't Let Me Die! They have also released a rarities album, Sexy Trash, and a live album entitled Absolute Pleasure. A live DVD, funded via Kickstarter, called Absolute Treasure was released for download in February 2014.

Teenage Engineering is a Swedish electronics company founded in 2007. Based in Stockholm, the company designs and manufactures synthesizers. Its core product is the Teenage Engineering OP-1, a synthesizer, sampler, and sequencer. Although the OP-1 targets a high price point, Teenage Engineering has also introduced the less expensive Pocket Operator series, a collaboration with the Swedish clothing label Cheap Monday. In addition to synthesizers, Teenage Engineering manufactures the OD-11 cloud speaker, a recreation of the 1974 Sonab speaker of the same name, and accessories for their other products.
Teenage Engineering products have been well received for their aesthetic value and functionality.
Teenage Engineering was founded in 2007 by Jesper Kouthoofd, Jens Rudberg, David Ericsson and later joined by David Möllerstedt. Möllerstedt had previously headed the audio department at EA DICE. Teenage Engineering has expanded to 30 employees, who work out of a garage in Stockholm. Their first product, the OP-1, was introduced at the NAMM Show in 2010. With influences from 1980s computers and Japanese synthesizers, the OP-1 is a synthesizer, sampler, and sequencer with a two-octave keyboard and microUSB MIDI. Its design is reminiscent of the Casio VL-1, a cheap synthesizer and calculator produced in 1980. The OP-1 received some criticism for its small size and simplicity, which make it resemble a toy. It also lacks velocity sensitivity, resulting in a minimally expressive keyboard. However, reception for the OP-1 was largely positive, citing its powerful synthesizer engines and unconventional format. Shortly after the release of the OP-1, Teenage Engineering also produced several "accessories", which could be used to manipulate the unit's knobs. One of the accessories makes the OP-1 compatible with Lego gears and motors, which can be used to mechanically modulate low-frequency oscillators and other effects.

Everybody's got opinions
on the way you're living
But see they can't fill your shoes
Life is made of half illusion (illusion)
Forty percent confusion (confusion)
Whatever's left I'm using to keep myself from losing, yea
You don't know what I've been through (oooh)
Hell I might go through you (ghetto boy that, won't eat, tonight)
Uh-oh, oh no-oahohh (that little boy just wanna eat tonight)
Hey hey (he scuffles with her booty and her face) hey hey
And mm-mmmmmm (mom I'm seekin that sir tea and some soup yea)
All in all it's all in my head
You know it's that high guy, from East P.I.
Spittin the realness of reality, you mad at me
boi how you gonna handle me?
You want me to lolligag and talk that bullshit?
I refuse to play so I'm gon' speak that Southern good shit
That harder than yo' hood shit, lil' shit

before you pull it, on liquor stores and banks
Them folks got more than enough bullets to put that ass
off in the slang, don't claim no gang, we the niggaz

But still though, how you gonna play a nigga like dildo
We OutKast til it's over, barbeque and never mildo
For real bro
"In tonight's news, 20th century technology:
has the computer age, scientists, and doctors gone too far?
Einstein or Frankenstein?

or digging our own graves? Story at 11"

Conceived under the influence of toxic wasted doctors
Computer buggin debuggin device-a and vice versa
and various viruses
Performing with laser light precision and verbal incision
For a lingustic ballistic lobotomy
Mind-fuckin you, a psycho-sodomy
of the medula oblongata
Accept your mind down your spine and out your behind
Fuck you
Synthesizer, microwave me
Give me a drug so I can make seven babies
Pump my breasts up, can you suck the fat up
Please make my life appear
like ain't no such thing as bad luck
My, nose ain't right
Like I need a new one
Just take your pick, a yellow red
A black or a blue one
Virtual reality, virtual, BULLSHIT
Synthesizer preachers can reach you
up in the pulpit
Who a bitch?
Give me my gat so I can smoke this nigga
Tell his mamma not to cry
because they can clone him quicker
than it took his daddy to make him
Niggaz bitin verbatim
Thought provokin records radio never played dem
Instant, quick grits, new, improved
Hurry hurry, rush rush, world on the move
Marijuana illegal but ciggarettes cool
I might LOOK kinda funny but I ain't no fool
Now if you wanna synthesize I emp-athize
Now if you wanna synthesize I emp-athize
But if you synthesize I will understand

Ghetto boy horny tonight

Problem sinkin down and stretchin out
so sleepy, playing safe in cyberspace
