Future Retro XS - Space acid jam

YouTube via darenager
"Testing out the XS with the modular.

The Blacet Binary Zone is patched into the XS CV input, the clock output from the BZ is firing the Blacet EG which in turn is going to the gate input on the XS.

The XS is running through the Bel BD80 delay.

Great fun!"

Live Techno Series 1 - Simon Stokes - MC-909 / Virus TI

YouTube via siedgey
"**Apologies for the crappy sound quality - YouTube doesn't like sub bass!**

Thanks for checking this out! I had time today to record a new live techno jam - this on is basically a test of my shiny new Virus TI2 desktop. This beast is providing all the synthy noises, bassline etc, while the good ol' 909 provides the percussion.

All comments are welcomed, hope you have a sub woofer... ;)

Cheers,

Simon"

The Harvestman: Hertz Donut

flickr by Analogue Haven

"The Hertz Donut is now in production and we should have stock in about 3-4 weeks. They are being factory-made and will return to The Harvestman in around 2 weeks. Add another week to that for testing, plus shipping, and then we should have them. We'll probably put up a pre-order shopping cart sometime next week. The price will be just over the $400 mark. Also in the photo is the patch that ships with the first run of modules. LINK: www.theharvestman.org/9791.php."
