Some classic early TD albums there!

Their first one, Electronic Meditation was the only one with Conrad Schnitzler, an iconic synth pioneer.

Harry Thumann - Underwater

Heavy synth orchestration in this classic, every sound included! Really crisp and detailed production and so groovy!

Disco feelings!

Whilst I'm always looking to buy record collections, at the moment it's a priority!

Do you know anyone looking to shift their collection, or perhaps are you embracing a different format... or moving, whatever the reason.

A world of skittering awaits….. I am enjoying using the erratic triggers to advance sequencers etc.

I have been to Auckland a few times - Is the Real Groovy record shop still the main one in the city?

Liking Blawan material, that arrived yesterday, in the "Pile to be Listened to" in front of the stereo

I’ve got that one, lots of good tracks.

Handy to fill up the CD autochanger in the car. That would be more tricky with vinyl 🤓

Recent DIY activity - building a Making Sound Machines Divskip module.

Lots of socket and pots soldering, not the SMD, thank goodness.

Getting to know the various Bernoulli, Turing, Euclidian, Clock divider and pattern modes, fun watching the led rings go round!

Interesting, you are right, lots of music but not much audio chat here!

My morning system;

Records, DVDs, CDs, tapes, radio & streaming happily together.

Interesting, I know Portsmouth / Southsea has a few record shops, but have found Southampton has thin pickings - Vinilo, Oxfam - are there others?

Nice poster selection, liking the piece of Gnod that passeth all understanding. 🤤

Looking forward to that one arriving today….

One of the most memorable TD tracks, great 12 string guitar (or multitracked?) and the classic repeated bass riff.

I am in Camp Threaded Rail, but I might dip my toes in Sliding Nuts, for a 84hp rack with a few big modules.

There is a fair amount of chopping and changing of modules as the mood takes me, it will be interesting to see it it makes it more difficult to move items.

Yep, That whole German acid techno scene was very good to follow, loads of great music from the Voigts, Air Liquide, Dr Walker etc.

How would you know they are on stage?

"John, turn on the laptop, press play, we can nip down the pub and come back in 75 mins or so. Give the sound guy £20 to keep an eye on it." 😉

My latest Eurorack addition, a Eurorack Pro RX1602 line mixer. 16 channels down to 2, with a mono effects send.

Needed a good clean of sticky residue.

Eurorack has two meanings, Eurorack as in modular, and Behringer Eurorack, meaning 19” rack mounting effects and processors.

Very true, everybody loves and sticks with the music of their teens.

For me this is punk, and the early days of post-punk. I will not attend to anything else. 🤓😏
