Anything posted will be taken down if it is at all synth-collector oriented, chiptune-related, dull, or sheeplike.
Otherwise, if it relates to electronic music somehow, fire away.
Photos of vintage keyboards are not welcome -- unless they're STRANGE keyboards. Links to ebay auctions of vintage gear are not welcome -- unless it's a homebrew piece of freaky warped weirdness.
All tech must be ODD. Germanium transistors, arcane synth modules, vacuum tubes, steam-powered piston oscillators, whatever -- it has to be WRONG.
Unusual controllers are always welcome. If something looks like a Minimoog or has a piano-ish keyboard, it's usually boring and we aren't interested.
Press releases have to concern oddities, and must not come from any manufacturer who makes more than $100k per year.

One Response to “Who says you can’t build a steam-powered synthesizer?”
OH MY GOD. I’ve totally had this idea for a steam powered drum machine in my head for ages, the snare would be 2 pieces of leather being cracked together (much like a belt being snaped) and the hat’s would be steam being released and the kick would be a “boot clad foot” being dropped on a resonator of some sort…..It’s a little more intricate in my head I must say…I really wish I could impliment it.
