Ok, get your head out of the gutter. CDM has a refreshing post up on Adorable Animals with Synthesizers, and Matrixsynth got a mention! Some cool shots and a good read to start the weekend. Title link takes you there. Thanks Peter! Oh, and you might notice, dogs! Check out the puppy named synthesizer after the hop. Someone get me a shot of Elhardt. : o

Liteworks

Title link takes you to a free download of Liteworks, a new album by Mike Mayfield. Lots of analog - kit list below. What's interesting is Mike did this in Texas while in exile from New Orleans due to Katrina.

Make sure to check out the rest of Backporch Revolution. Via Alec: "The Katrina connection is that Mike (like all of us on the label) being New Orleans residents were forced to evacuate and live in exile for a number of months. Mike used that time to make music, hence this project. We're also about to release a compilation CD of all our N.O. bands; see this link."

Kit List for Liteworks:
Moog Prodigy
Roland Juno-60
Roland SVC-350 vocoder
Ace Tone organ
Kimball Swinger organ
Thumb Piano
Ace Tone Rhythm Ace
Korg Rhythm 55
Roland CR78 Compurhythm
Various Electro Harmonix pedals
Akai MPC 2000
Tambourine and shakers

6 AM - Wanderland

Remember this shot by Rui Peixoto? Rui posted this killer triphop track on AH showcasing Modcan (basses and leads), Absynth, Battery and some drum loops. Check it out. It's not only a great showcase for these synths, it's a great track. Title link takes you to his site, Wanderland.net.
