"'Sounds vom Synthesizer' was a radio show from the German station HR3 (Hessischer Rundfunk in Frankfurt). It was aired every two weeks from January 1983 to December 1986. The show was moderated first by Volkmar Krammarz and later by Rainer Sauer.
The show presented music made with synthesizers, run interviews with artists in the studio in Frankfurt (i.e. Propaganda, Klaus Schulze, Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Howard Jones, Michael Rother, Ash Ra Tempel, Kraftwerk, Art of Noise or Spliff to name a few).
In addition specials like the regular series 'Per Anhalter durch die Synthesizergeschichte' (The Hitchhiker's Guide to Synth History), 'We are Producers' or the 'Electronic Poll' (Reader Poll) have been part of the show.
Even synth tests or reports from Musikmesse FFM have been sent in the later shows, Equipment rangin from Kurzweil K250 to sampler cards for C64 or Apple ][.
