An alternative, even if you are not into modular synths, is Moritz Klein's videos https://youtube.com/c/MoritzKlein0

The basics are very well explained.

This is very good but before throwing people off the deep end I'd suggest this overview (origin of the dx7 & fm synthesis):

And then some bigclivedotcom to get going: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Maq5IyHSuc

EEVblog for intermediate beginner stuff / home gamer lab gear: https://www.youtube.com/c/EevblogDave/videos?view=0&sort=p&f...

And finally some Marco Reps for advanced beginners: https://www.youtube.com/c/MarcoReps/videos

Just to dip your toe in.

Wouldn't say Moritz videos are the deep end. He is explaining resistors by comparing them to water pipes with narrow parts. He is also very good at pointing out where such comparisons don't work.
