Electro Harmonix Electric Mistress Flanger/Filter Matrix
Only something to see here, literally. : ) I just like this shot. I wasn't going to post this but I figured why not. Title link just takes you to a bigger shot. Oh, and it's got green, black and it says Matrix. : )
Radikal Technologies Spectralis
I haven't been to the Radikal Technologies site in some time. It's been updated with samples and more. Title link takes you there. Worth checking out again if you haven't been there in a bit. The Spectralis is from Jorg Schaaf, previously of Quasimidi. In a sense this would be the next generation synth from the minds that made Quasimidi. Moogulator has a great page up with more info on the Spectralis. Click here for the page.
How I wish this was a synth...
Via Engadget. Looks like a music player phone. It's just a matter time before we will have all our synths in our pocket. Actually, you can get a Pocet PC (phone edition or not), and Griff.

Moog Moves
In via Sonic State. It's great to see Moog Music moving forward.

“Bob helped pick out this space and design the layout,” states company President, Mike Adams. “We felt that it was important to stay in Asheville, where our roots are, and this area meant a great deal to Bob. Unfortunately, Bob did not have the opportunity to work in the finished space. His legacy lives here in the products we produce and the people he worked with. We are excited to settle into the new facility and continue the great tradition of innovation that is Moog.”

Roland SH-101 trick - filter FM and AM
Via Andreas on Sonic State's the-gas-station. Title link takes you to thread with samples.

Update: Another tip from Mike in the comments section below:
"As my SH doesn't have midi yet and i don't have
a CV/gate sequencer either , i feed the trigger outs of my Tr 808 into the clock in. In combination with the internal Sequencer of the 101 you can sync the pattern of the SH to the 808 clock and get very inspiring sequences, as each step programmed makes the Sh's Sequence to move to the next note, so depending on the pattern (i always use the Accent for this)you have programmed, you get nice and uneven sequences. This method works
for syncing the Arpegiator to the clock too."

Eurythmics Goes Old School
Via Music Thing.

From Arjan Writes music blog:
"The video for the new single has been shot by photographer Matthew Rolston. His visual concept was to create a homage to the early Eurythmics days with both Lennox and Steward in suit around vintage synthesizers (just like in "Sweet Dream"). Click here for an exclusive photo from the video shoot. Listen to a 10 second snippet of the song just to get a feel for it."

The Novachord Restoration Project
Via MC of AH. CMS is restoring a Hammond Novachord. Title link takes you to a page on the restoration project. There are also some examples of what the Novachord sounded like. The Novachord was Hammond's first electronic instrument released in 1939. It was a polyphonic electronic organ that predated the Hammond Solovox. For more info on the history of the Hammond Novacord, see 120 Years.
Switched On Bach - New Flickr Shots
Wendy Carlos' Switched on Bach. The album that started it all. Title link takes you to two Flickr shots, one of the back and one of the front. The interesting note is that the album int the shots is "factory sealed." Pretty cool, but I remember that old plastic album covering sometimes had a tendancy to shrink and warp the sleeve. This one looks good though. Anywho, enough with the jibba jabba...
