What got you hooked? Why sound synthesis?

The year, 1977, growing up in a household of mostly classical music, my dad bought me a compilation album of Bach which has a track by the Moog composer, Wendy Carlos. This along with a 45rpm of Universal Energy opened my eyes to the often quirky and yet dreamy music from another world, expanding into our modern renditions. Many more artist such as Tomita, JMJ, Laurie Anderson, Kraftwerk and harder edged convention breakers such as Throbbing Gristle, Chris&Cosey along with many many more have always and continue to inspire.

Here is a youtube link to a remastered edition of Universal Energy and also a Carlos on BBC segment which is delicious!!!
