The Sampleist - Yellowjacket, the EDP WASP Reborn

Apr 22, 2025 | The Sampleist

Join Adrian Earnshaw of The Sampleist for his in-depth overview of Yellowjacket and another wonderful composition on Cherry Audio's latest.

Cherry Audio has done it again! The mighty WASP flies again reborn in typical Cherry fashion as a faithful recreation plus all the extras we’ve come to know, love and dare I say expect. The WASP was the brainchild of Chris Hugget & The Electric Dream Plant in 1978 and became famous for its signature filter’s growling and snarling grit. Made popular by artists like Jean Michel Jarre, Nick Rhodes of Duran Duran, Vince Clark and 808 State, The WASP is now a revered collector classic. Sit back and enjoy this one come back to life in the digital domain after 40 years as the beast it is.
