"These six chips were recently removed from my working prophet 5 rev2. They have the resister on the top and three of the chips have one pin bent out (thats how they were in the synth). At least 3 say phil on the back meaning made in the philapines with number 22 and another 18 or 13 ,hard to read and the third no number. The chips have been stored in a static proof bag and will ship that way."
"rare ARP 2600 Grey Meanie.It has all the same functions as the usual 2600 grey face including the Moog filter ladder,but this was the second batch of the 2600 run.First was the Blue Marvin about 20 of these were made next was the Grey Meanie 35 or so were made so this really is the real deal of vintage and rare synths."
"The VST-AU JUNO-106 Editor™ is a real-time MIDI synth editor that allows you full control of every parameter of the sound on the Roland Juno-106™ synthesizer. Now you can utilize your JUNO-106 to its full potential and build lasting and meaningful patches that will bring new life to your music. You can manage, view and edit all your patches on the computer itself without the hassle of manual dumps. All parameters are fully automatable and you can even use your favorite VST or AU host, or use it stand-alone, giving you the ability to visually program the JUNO-106 to your music via the host sequencer. This ability to model your synth patches in realtime, inside your main music production environment is part of what makes the VST-AU JUNO-106 Editor™ unique when compared to other hardware synth editors. You may also use the standalone application if you do not need to work inside the host or if your host is not supported." full details here
"It was great news that US artist Tara Busch did a special performance just for us. Tara is a music maker, producer and, in her own words, a gear pornographer. Her acclaimed blog about analogue synths has thousands of readers, and her recent album was very warmly received by critics and fans alike. You can find out more about her here, and heres what the press have said about the album:
Kate Bush for the modern age; ethereal, sinister but strangely sweet. The torch has been passed. More than just another new Kate Bush. NME
With her debut album, the California-based Busch invites us to enter her strange and wonderful universe: ethereal, morbid but also poetic its a sort of musical and feminine equivalent to the films of Tim Burton. The Independent
Pilfershire Lane is an epic experience from beginning to end, and one of the odder pop albums youll get to hear not just this year, but probably ever Artrocker
The album hums with vintage analogue sounds and contains some fine moments for fans of experimental music. ..quite addictive TUNERAKER.COM
Taras own remarkable vocal range have ensured one of the most interesting records in a long time. With her poetic lyrics and understanding of the craft of making music this is an album of special quality. SUBBA-CULTCHA

So I decided to illustrate the video that Michel made for Sandy P's Relentless Machine Dream*. I wanted her to look equal parts Wonder Woman, Maria from Metropolis and a heavy dash of H.R. Giger. (Also slightly inspired by the cover of the Tonto's Expanding Head Band album that's propped up on top of my CD case.)
It's funny, that is actually what my fingers do on the rare occasion that I remember to do a reality check in order to try and provoke lucid dreaming.
*If you don't know what I'm talking about, never mind, they are characters from a story. Hey, leave me alone I've been listening to Aphex Twin's Drukqs for about 48 hours straight at this point and my head has gone really funny and I'm having erotic daydreams about synthesisers. I mean, as you do..."
