Here's an early stage of an early #DIY -#pedalboard- err, portable desk top? for the #TwistedElectrons #drumMachine and #synthesizers.

Not yet included is the TherapSID as the sound chips are not installed. lol. One day I'll buy the final revision and add it to a real board.

Outside the frame is the #OXIinstruments One #sequencer. That came with a nice case so, I'll leave it in there for now.

Again, I need a better power solution. I need more gear altogether! lol

"Anti-Hero" is a song by the American singer-songwriter #TaylorSwift and the #leadSingle from her tenth studio album, #Midnights (2022). Swift wrote and produced the song with #JackAntonoff. It is a #popRock and #synthpop song driven by a 1980s-inspired drum #loop generated with a #LinnDrum and retro #synthesizers such as the #Juno6 and the #Prophet5. Inspired by Swift's insecurities, the lyrics focus on self-loathing and the impact of fame on her wellbeing.

Very interesting exhibit by Scott Myles at the modern art museum in #glasgow. Lots of microphones, one of which mics the air recycling unit is fed into an #eurorack for some ambient drones accompanied by some deep low punches.

There're also giving away a cool poster that I have no way to safely transport :/

Another point of interest for me is seeing adam audio speakers in a museum. Usually i see genelecs so I'm curious if the speakers are the artists'.
