This week on The State of Synth, we’re joined by Seattle synthwave veteran Vector Hold (Peter Rice). We talk about his evolution from dreamwave to harder-hitting retro sounds, his production setup, creative influences, and his latest track, “Soft Focus Apocalypse.”

Plus, new music from Eden Future, Altermore, Jeremiah Kane, Glenn Main, and more — closing with Neon Nox & Midnight Fury’s high-octane “F1.”
