We are well into December now with the temps to prove it, and I thought now is the perfect time to feature an hour of nothing but icy cold synthesizer tracks. Inspired by these frigid temperatures, we're going to be bringing on the chilly synth action from Kraftwerk and Devo, OMD and New Order, Gary Numan and Yaz — and the list goes on. I invite you to throw on a heavy jacket and join me for the program.
