no synthesizers

A tendency for certain rock bands to want to laud/trumpet/reassure die-hards that while an 128 channel mixing desk is digital, the piano plugged into channel 88 is recorded using real analogue microphones (probably digital), and all digital post-production is done without using any sort of high fidelity electronic reproduction, no matter now acoustically similar to a "real" bagpipe the digital algorithm is, it is, in fact, cat gut being heard. Despite the acoustic versitility offered by modern technology, this tiny slice of it remains verboten, especially if your band specialises in 24-stomp box digital delay guitar solos, amplifiers with on-board effects, or many of the other mod-cons the computer revolution has brought recording artists, including not having to pretend it's the hiss that makes the LP - as digital hiss can be mixed in, or that Jump and I'll Wait ruined Van Halen's awesome 1984.

self-syntheticity

The asymmetry of linear time.

The quality of linear time having momentum.

The circumstance of the asymmetric momentum falling under the material (false) frame of consciousness in order to preserve external symmetry.

The circumstance of value having a meta-value because the null value is neither conclusively a point nor a line.

The circumstance of something appearing from nothing.
In the paradigm of self-syntheticity something appears from nothing because the syntheticity is contrapositive to the thesis AND the antithesis.

synth-pop

A music genre performed mostly or totally on electronic instruments: synthesizers, samplers and drum machines.

Often confused with New Wave, but it's not the same. New Wave is guitar-based genre, and synth-pop evolved from new wave by replacing guitar-based arrangements with synths.

It was extremely popular genre in 80s, but in 2000s had sort of comeback, and loyal fan base
Depeche Mode, Human League, OMD, A-HA, Erasure, Pet Shop Boys, New Order are great synth-pop bands

synthesizer

Both the electric guitar and the synthesizer are electricity based instruments. The main difference is that a synth player is looking for affection from his instrument, rather than from his female fans.

Oh and the synthesizer is played with keys that trigger oscillators, which are led through a series of customizable filters to shape the final sound, whereas the electric guitar is played by touching strings moving in the mangetic field of the pickup coils, or not at all if the amount of affectionate female fans prohibits this. A solution for the guitarist finding himself in this situation is to touch the strings of the female fans.

Synth players who think that the fans are coming too close are advised to buy more synths and build a little synth fortress around themselves on stage.
After getting married, John decided to buy himself a synthesizer to replace his now useless guitar.

Even though he played nothing but synthesizers, the artist had a huge share of good looking female fans.

Bill used to play guitar just to get some, but later found out he actually had musical talent and hence switched to synthesizers.
