Raglani Interview and Call for Help on Stolen Gear

This is a bit of a double post. First there is a great interview on Raglani in the River Front Times here. The article covers Raglani's use of synths. It also covers a very unfortunate event.

"On May 16, as Raglani was beginning his first U.S. tour at Brooklyn's experimental-music festival No Fun Fest, his van was burglarized and all of his electronic gear — synthesizers, effects pedals, speakers, merch and more, all valued at nearly $10,000 — disappeared while Raglani stopped for dinner.

Any musician or artist can sympathize with the devastation that accompanies such a loss; the sentimental value of losing, say, your first electric guitar or a journal full of sketches is normally as great as the financial hit. But for a musician like Raglani, who uses vintage analog synths alongside newer (and pricey) boutique gear, these instruments can't be replaced with a trip to Guitar Center."

The following is the list of gear that was stolen with serial numbers. If you spot any, contact Raglani at www.myspace.com/raglani or pegasusfarmsrecords at gmail.com. Of course check out the site for his music as well. And be sure to check out the interview.

Yamaha TG77 Display Upgrade / Replacement

via David on the SDIY list:

"I finally got around to changing the display on my ancient and illegible
Yamaha TG77. The backlight died several years ago and this wonderful machine
has been sitting more or less idle in my rack ever since.

There wasn't much to the upgrade process. I just followed some instructions
here
