Title link takes you to the listing on Novamusik. So far I haven't found a picture of the unit. It's supposed to be ultra portable. If you know of one, please comment and I'll update the post.

Belgian Electronic Instruments Festival

"A meeting between musicians, intruments and sound lovers ! The goal is to "promote" electronic instruments and discover them the best way : by playing them !

We also want to mix people from different horizons, active or not in the belgian electronic music scene.

Everyone coming to the BEIF is invited to bring their electronic instruments. You will be able to show (off) your own abilities and test other people's instruments. And this time it won't be like the music store : nobody is going to ask you "May I help you ?"

As it is our first edition, we don't know yet how things are going to turn out. But after the speaking-testing-playing-drinking time of the afternoon, it's up to us to turn the whole thing into a delightful jam session of experimental noises."

via Thomas B:

"I organise the Belgian Electronic Instruments festival this weekend. I thought you might be interested for a post. It's basicaly a vintage/new synth meeting in the center of Brussels, with jam sessions and concert during the evening."

Thanks Thomas! Title link takes you to more info.

The Atari Punk Console

Click here for a post on the APC by Wild Zebra on electro-music.com. There is a larger shot there and a link to a sample of the box (mirrored here).

"Firstly it starts out with 3 simple Soundlab tracks: Long ramp LFO, Filter A/R noise and S&H using manual trigger. Then we go into some CrackleBox with an over dub of Atari Punk Console, and on to some Theremin (boards that v-un-v had available) with alittle Weird sound generator to finish it off. No effects."

Funny, the intro reminded me of the intro to this.
