:wrongbot: PT2399 Echo 4093 Quad Nand Synth LFO

YouTube via Wrongbot
"it's a bigger metal box than the last one. It's just as sci-fi and has an added LFO which outputs both triangle and square wave. This is hooked up via a pair of vactrols linked to the delay time of the PT2399 and the voltage of the 4093. This results in manic pulses and sonic beauty... of course :)"

"Vil du med" - on Böhm Station One

YouTube via organfairy

"This is so 80's....!

The song, the keyboard, the workstation, even the pant suit is from the 80's!

The song "Vil du med" was performed by Birthe Kjær at the local Danish Eurovision Song Contest in 1986 where it came in second. The winner was "Du er fuld af løgn" by Trax - but that's another story.
Here I perform the melody on a Böhm workstation with a GEM DSK-7 as keyboard controller.

And apparantly I am being bodysnatched by a giant pink flower from outer space.... "
