We were beyond delighted that the legendary Suzanne Ciani paid a visit to our Glasgow showroom ahead of her performance as part of Sonica 2026. Luke and Tom spoke to her about being synonymous with Buchla, and her long career in electronic music - from building synths in California in the 1960s to collaborating with Actress and continuing to tour the world with her 200-series system.

Big thanks to Su ‘SHHE’ Shaw and Jenn at Electric Shores for setting this up for us.

They talk about their own experiences with buying and selling synths and recording gear, and reveal what they’d keep if they were marooned on a desert island with only three power points.
