please change title to: "Look what I put in potato cellar and then subsequently removed from potato cellar, and then took a picture of next to potato cellar"....then I'll go over to my grandma's house and put my mono/poly in the freezer, then take it out and declare "look what I found in my granny's icebox!"
ReplyDeleteEven if it's fake it's still funny.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's humor, not fraud, anon #1.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed by the sheer existence of the potato cellar to enact a synth finding. cool photo. polaranta is cool in my book. he's also the guy from the synthezatori videos on youtube, isn't he?
ReplyDeleteoh, now I see the link. that's him alright. the guerrilla take on synths is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI see it as a joke showing how common the polivoks is to find in east Europe. People see the ebay sellers charging $600 for a polivoks and do not realize that they are very common in east Europe and can be found in closets and garages and are usually free if you agree to haul it away. The US dollar equivalent average to buy a polivoks in Russia is about $30, but you can usually find someone that has one that will just give it to you free.
ReplyDeletewouldn't it be cool if al-qaeda had some synthesizer design units to prove their superiority in face of the great satan (western capitalist society)? I'd fancy some allahvox myself!
ReplyDeleteCircuit benders.
ReplyDeleteActually they're not that common as my jokes may suggest. They're quite rare even here, but of course much more frequent than in US or wherever. But yes, they're cheaper than 800$, obviously.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone wants to give me a free one, I'll take it. I'll even sweeten the deal with some all-American Idaho pataters?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are not quite as common in Poland perhaps as Russia. The reason, I believe, that these (and other Soviet synths) are so common in Russia is that under Communism synth were banned from being imported from other countries. This is the reason that the Soviet synths were developed in the first place, to rival the west, and give their people an instrument and sense of pride to play with. So the only synths that citizens of the now Russia had access to were the Soviet ones.
ReplyDeleteIt would be like if the only synth the US had access to for decades were SCI then there would be an over-abundance of SCI synths in the States and SCI synths would go for pennies in US but much more overseas. I do not know if I am explaining that well enough, hopefully you get the point of my meaning.
