reverbnation/dakhead

ROLAND JUNO-106 POLYPHONIC ANALOG SYNTHESIZER WITH BLUE LEDS, BLUE LIGHTED BENDER & BLUE LED 6 VOICE DSI POLY METER!!

ALL SIX VOICES WORK, IT WAS MODIFIED BY SYNTHSPA FOUND HERE ON EBAY. THIS UNIT HAS THE "Mk II" MOD THAT ADDS THE "DSI POLY METER" THAT LIGHTS UP WHEN A VOICE(KEY) IS TRIGGERED. THIS MUST HAVE BEEN A SYNTHSPA "Mk II" PROTOTYPE, BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE THE ON/OFF SWITCHES FOR THE POLY METER OR THE BLUE LIGHTED BENDER. THE SURFACE WAS GLOSSED OVER, VERY WELL DONE I MUST ADD. IT IS VERY SHINY. THE WHITE PAINT ON THE KEYBOARD HAS YELLOWED A BIT, BUT NOT TOO BAD! IT GIVES IT A TRUE VINTAGE FEEL & MORE OF A JUNO-60 LOOK! IT HAS THE 3-PRONG POWER SUPPLY ADDED TOO. ALL 6 VOICE CHIPS WORK AND BATTERY WAS CHANGED OUT WITH A COIN BATTERY CLIP SO YOU CAN CHANGE THE BATTERY OUT WHEN IT GETS LOW. IT IS LOADED WITH A "BEST OF" JUNO-106 PATCH COLLECTION SO IT HAS JUST ABOUT EVERY ANALOG SOUND YOU COULD EVER NEED FOR STUDIO OR LIVE USE. BASS, LEADS, PADS, EFX, ETC.!!!

SO ALL KEYS, SLIDERS, BUTTONS, KNOBS, LEDS, OUTPUTS, TAPE, MIDI, BENDER ALL WORK. IT WAS MODIFIED & FIXED UP FROM THE SYNTHSPA. THIS WAS MY 3RD JUNO-106 FROM THEM, SO I KNOW IT WORKS & ROCKS!!!"

The Grandfather Paradox: A Journey Through 50 Years of Minimalistic Music

via FACT magazine where you'll find the full post including track listings.

Anyone know what that is to the left of him - the white slant?

"The Grandfather Paradox is a double-disc affair - the first CD mixed, the second CD unmixed. The time-travelling track selection is pretty faultless - kicking off with Movement 3 from Steve Reich and Pat Metheny's sublime Electric Counterpoint, and taking in the Balearic drift of Kenneth Bager, the stargazing kosmische of Conrad Schnitzler and Klaus Schulze (pictured), the hypnotic punk-funk of Liquid Liquid, exquisitely modulated post-rock-cum-electronic from To Rococo Rot, tonally fierce techno from Robert Hood and Ø (Pan Sonic's Mika Vainio) and a spot of lo-fi dystopian electro from the inimitable John Carpenter. Along the way we hit upon such muso touchstones as Young Marble Giants, Arthur Russell, Cymande, Moondog and Raymond Scott; extra points too for including Hawtin's pummelling remix of La Funk Mob."
