After leaving Psychedelic Rock trio Ruckzuck behind, Nicky Bedo traded her guitar for analog synthesizers and transformed into the persona we now know as Polly Vinylchloryd – the undisputed Diva of Synthpop.
Born and raised in a vibrant Italian-American household on Long Island, Nicky’s artistic journey began at the School of Visual Arts in NYC. But it was her deep appreciation for electronic pioneers like Gary Numan, The Human League, Brian Eno, and Disco wizard Giorgio Moroder that shaped her musical direction.
Analog Synthesizers in a Digital World
In today’s rush toward all things digital, Polly’s analog synthesizers stand as a beautiful rebellion. Her sound isn’t just nostalgic, it’s a passionate statement about preserving the soul and character that come from old-school equipment.
Not to mention, analog synthesizers bring a richness to the sound that digital can’t replicate, making the music feel way more personal.
“A Warm Fuzzy Place” – Vintage Vibes Perfected
The accompanying music video for her recent single, “A Warm Fuzzy Place,” is a masterclass in retro aesthetics, deliberately crafted to match the analog synthesizer soundscape that drives the track.
Above all, what sets this clip apart is its awesome VHS-style recording quality. Remember those slightly fuzzy edges and that distinctive color saturation? It’s all there, perfectly complementing her back-to-the-80s energy.
Creativity You Can Hear
Polly Vinylchloryd’s setup includes a genuine Roland drum machine from 1983, adding legitimate vintage flavor to every beat. And that spiral corded telephone she uses in the video? It’s those thoughtful touches that transport listeners straight back to the past.
As a result, you will witness a simple but stunning tune that reminds you why analog synthesizers will never truly go out of style. Furthermore, in her capable hands, these instruments create whole worlds where electronic sounds feel wonderfully creative.
