Contemporary replicas of those synth sounds are now commonplace with pop acts like Dua Lipa and The Weeknd. While gearing up to make their second album in 2015, CHVRCHES members Iain Cook and Martin Doherty spent much of the recording budget buying up many of the original synthesizers used to make those iconic 80s dance tracks.
