27 May 2026, 7:00 am - 15 minutes 29 secondsIntroducing...Shaping Sounds: Stevie Wonder, DEVO, the Synth Revolution and My Life Behind the Music by Robert Margouleff
Here’s a preview from a new audiobook we think you’ll love, Shaping Sounds: Stevie Wonder, DEVO, the Synth Revolution and My Life Behind the Music by Robert Margouleff. In Shaping Sounds, visionary music producer Robert Margouleff shares his stories of pushing the boundaries of musical innovation, art, and technology while helping to create some of the most significant and influential music of our time. Along with his long-time partner, Malcolm Cecil, Robert invented the world's largest analog synthesizer, TONTO (The Original New Timbral Orchestra), which helped unleash Stevie Wonder’s genius on his era-defining classic albums, Music Of My Mind, Talking Book, Innervisions, and Fulfillingness’ First Finale. In legendary studios like Electric Lady and the Record Plant, Robert became a pioneering producer and engineer for artists like Billy Preston, Jeff Beck, DEVO, The Isley Brothers, and David Sanborn. Shaping Sounds is a story about creativity, collaboration, and artistic courage. In this preview, Robert shares the creative bond and mutual trust he, Malcolm, and Stevie had during the early 1970s, when they were working on three of Stevie’s landmark albums.
