"I recently picked up this old analogue synth from a guy in London. Run through a zVex Fuzz Factory and ProCo Rat, it's a dirty, filthy monster of a yoke! Plus, it manages to do a *very* convincing TB-303 impression."

I have a rule that I only post synths. Now and then I make the exception by posting on some of the people of interest behind the world of synths - the movers and shakers so to speak. Manufacturers usually get the post, but in this case it's two people that bring you synth content on a regular basis, Aliens Project and moogulator of sequencer.de. If you are lucky enough to be in the area, go check them out. I'm curious if monome is directly affiliated with http://monome.org. If anyone knows feel free to comment.
