I've just acquired an ex-demo M-100 Pro, as part of an ongoing upgrade plan. I'm not totally sure where it stands in the M range, as the Pro designation appears to have been dropped, and the T added. I know it's dual mono, and basically gorgeous. It looks identical to the other current EWA M...

Apogee Duetta Signature.

Another vote for the Omegas. I got one from UK Juicers, and it's amazing. Was 300 quid, possibly more, but it's a cut above.

'Analogue Synth Supergroup', Node, are playing their first gig for 15 years, at the Royal College of Music in London, at the end of this month. A rare chance to experience an almost unprecedented array of modular analogue synthesizers in the hands of people who fully comprehend how to use them...

My interest is dwindling. I'm willing the place to pull itself together, but it has become largely humourless. Like some deserted mining town, with tumbleweed blowing down the main street, past the boarded-up shops. Suddenly I'm acutely aware its a load of middle-aged blokes talking about amps...

I've had a chat with him on here. I was chuffed to find him still around somewhere. He's missed on the Wam.

It's excellent. Maybe not every track - need to listen more, but pretty consistent. The rhythm end is at a different level to Vespertine, IMHO, but I get the comparison. Sonically it's outstanding. A real album to show off your system. I wouldn't personally bother with the hi-res; the 16/44 is...

Good moment for a surreal re-union, if he's around..

Nice gig this Saturday for anyone who likes dub-flavoured electronica. Ott, who I know has a few fans on here, is playing at the Inspiral Lounge in Camden. http://www.inspiralled.net/community/1044-saturday-december-17th-ott-live I'll be playing some tunes before him, as I'm one of the...

Code 46, by David Holmes.

This has just come out. 38 tracks of beautiful electronica and acoustic music. Hard to imagine how one could make a better music purchase! I just got my copy, and I'm 17 tracks into the first disc and haven't heard a duff track yet. Loads of brilliant artists have supported it, and the money...

I absolutely want to see him tried properly, and if he is guilty, he should face the full consequences. As to culpability regarding the actions of subordinates, if he was aware, then he is directly responsible. If he was unaware, then he certainly still has to shoulder some blame as he was in...

I also have family there. My wife is Serb, and her father fought in the war. In answer to: "I wasn't but I've got lots of family that was, and Vuk even more so I would imagine. What you've written is a load of guff." My point was simply that it is for courts to impartially decide who is...

I find it interesting that there seems to be a general view the Mladic 'is a mass murderer', before he has actually been tried in court. For sure there is every chance he will be found guilty, but nonetheless, the very process of a trial represents evidence for and against being presented, and...

Cara Dillon, last night in Fowey. Sublime. Second time I've seen her. Accompanied by musicians of the utmost caliber. Can't recommend her enough.
