Polyend visits Adrian Utley

Published on Jan 25, 2019 Polyend

"This time we had an occasion to visit Ade's Utley Bristol-based studio where he's working with many great instruments including Polyend Perc and Seq. One-third of the pioneering trip-hop squad Portishead, Art Blakey's Jazz Messenger, working with Jeff Beck and many more. No wonder we got so excited and almost forgot how to film things, yet here's the fruit of this visit. Take a sit, relax, enjoy.

Recorded in Bristol 18 Oct 2018."

Review: Moog Sirin (including Minituar firmware updates over the years)

Published on Jan 25, 2019 loopop

"Moog's new Sirin is a refresh to the Moog Minitaur with a new look, but more importantly, it got a major upgrade to the internal oscillators that lets it play much higher, rather than stopping at C4 like the Minitaur.

Other than those two things it’s completely identical to the Minitaur, the thing is - if you search for reviews of the Minitaur you’ll see reviews and videos from 2012, when it was first released, which aren’t really relevant because so much has changed in the firmware and supporting software.

This video is a full overview of what both synths can do.
