Now that my CD is out (Scott from Canada - Mind=Blown) on CD Baby and iTunes I decided it was time to clean up a bit.
I got a new stand for the mixer so I can slide the OB-8 underneath. It opens up the little bit of space I have in the center a LOT more. I also cleaned up the wiring a bit and put the printer on a stool. I also moved the desk to the back of the room and decided it could stay there and hold the Chroma Polaris.

Experimenting with my Lomo Ringflash(awesome gift from wifey). I use a remote commander and just place it around the room. Thought I'd do a shot of all my gear with it.

Taken at F1.2, très bokeh! I LOVE this keyboard.
EXIF data's showing F1.4, but it was shot at F1.2. D300 has some trouble differentiating between F1.4 and F1.2 with this lens, they are physically pretty close, barely a full click.

Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
The microKORG is a MIDI-capable digital (virtual analog) synthesizer/vocoder from Korg featuring DSP analog modelling. The synthesizer is built in such a way that it is essentially a Korg MS-2000 with programmable step arpeggiator (MS-2000 has only six simple patterns), a less advanced vocoder (8 bands instead of 16 bands found on the MS-2000), lack of motion sequencing (MS-2000 had three motion sequences), lack of an XLR microphone input, and in a smaller case with fewer real-time control knobs.
The microKORG was released in 2002 and is still in production as of 2020. It is considered one of the most popular music synthesizers in recent history, with estimated 100,000 units sold as of May 2009. In September 2007 Korg released a limited edition of the microKORG with reverse-color keys although the functionality was otherwise unchanged. At NAMM 2008, a successor called the microKORG XL was introduced. Available since early 2009 it uses MMT Multi Modeling Technology from Korg's newer and more powerful Radias/R3 synthesizers.

There isn't much more fun that can be crammed into something this small. It's really really great...
I'm not quite sure why it took me so long to try using the Kaossilator as an input for the Microkorg. It opens up a whole new world of noise!
This is supposed to be a video, but it doesn't seem to work with Chrome.
Way back in the early 2000s I wheedled myself into the periphery of hipsterville, but there was a glass wall between us; they had money, I did not.
The last minute or so appears here:

I always wondered at the time if I could have been one of them, if only I hadn't been poor, and when of these G4s popped up on ebay for £10 I decided to have a go, viz the music, which is a generic and pretty dull imitation of mid-2000s rave. It would have seemed years out of date in the age of Boards of Canada and Autechre etc, but, dammit, I tried.
The problem is that poverty isn't just one aspect of a man's life, it's ingrained, and although I might have been able to emulate a narrow slice of the young middle-class lifestyle, the rest of it - e.g. the house, the job, the money, the assured future, the year in Thailand with a job waiting at the end of it, the work ethic, getting up in the morning etc - would remain out of my reach.
Sequenced with Logic Express 8; the instruments are mostly audio performed live with a MicroKorg and a ThinkPad X61, although I could have used samples instead. Contains a big sample of Ashera: Colour Glow. The 667mhz PowerBook is just powerful enough to run two simple VST/AU instruments at once but it can easily cope with samples.
From start to finish the process of learning about OS X, learning how to use Logic Express to a basic level, composing and recording the music to a point where further work would not justify the time took fourteen days.
perhaps twice as chaotic as kaoss.

LYRICS:
Walks around aimless,
young and restless.
Lost in the world.
Feeling faceless.
He's not like the rest.
Try to grab a hold.
The ride seems endless,
longing for the best.
Cannot fit in the mold.
Trying his best
to give away,
to fit in the mold.
Can't give all if you don't
have anything inside you. You're empty.
Can't give a thing if you don't
have anything inside you. You're empty.
He wonders
when he says things
no one's listening.
The angels are singing,
demons are dancing.
It's deafening.
He gives what he could bring
not minding
if it stings.
He looks inside,
he sees no light.
What he finds is nothing.
Can't give all if you don't
have anything inside you. You empty soul.
Can't give a thing if you don't
have anything inside you. You empty soul.
You cannot give what you don't have.
You cannot share what you don't have.
