Discography

I, Synthesist is Chris Ianuzzi, a composer/mixer of electropop music. He's just released his second album Art of Survival on November 3rd.
His biography doesn't really give too much about his history and origin in music making, but I suppose that stuff isn't that exciting or important to people (although I like reading stuff like that).
For instance, I'm kind of curious where he's from because he doesn't sound American. Especially in the song "Paradise", where you can clearly hear his accent (he sounds like he's from Hungary or Germany?).
As his stage name suggest, his music is purely synthesized. Typically whenever I hear "synth", I always think they sound too much like new wave/80s style (which is not a bad thing), and it's a fair assumption for I, Synthesist. Besides from the synthesized music, he also seem to be a performance artist, complete with costume and that funky "sleepy hollow" glasses.
For evidence of this, check out his live performances on his youtube page.
So for the uninitiated, there are three types of synth producers: analog, digital and purely software. The types that Ianuzzi uses are both classic analog and new digital, combining the two tools.
My favorite song off Art of Survival is "Telepathy". It's quite dancy and has a great beat. Listening to it the first time, I thought he was saying "To be with me, celebrity" but I think he's really saying Telepathy since it's the title of the song.
