A massive thanks to Lisa Bella Donna and Synthtopia for allowing me to use a snippet of Lisa's amazing performance. Check out the full performance here:

► https://www.synthtopia.com/content/20...

Bella Donna's performance features a streamlined setup of a Moog Matriarch synthesizer and effects pedals from Earthquaker Devices. But the Sonic Sorceress coaxes a huge range of sounds and moods from her rig, from ambient textures, to prog leads, to primal wails.

Bella Donna recently wrapped up a tour of Japan with Boris and has two new albums out on Bandcamp
