Ryuichi Sakamoto with Moog Modular

I just ordered YMO's Solid State Survivor on vinyl and did a quick search on Ryuichi Sakamoto. I came across this image from this site in Spanish referencing his score for The Revenant. Anyway, I thought it was a cool pic worth sharing.

Update: for those not familiar with Yellow Magic Orchestra, I added two of their tracks below.

Roland MC 505 Repair and noodle!

Published on Jun 11, 2016 100 Things I Do

"I picked up this very broken MC 505 at the Melbourne Music Swap Shop this week. When I got it hardly any of the control surface worked.

The track was composed and played back on the MC 505 as a test."
