Thinking about minimalist live shows. This all fits in my bike panniers, so I’m eco-gig-friendly.

Based around the #Bluebox, #Korg #NTS1 and #VolcaModular, #Arturia #Keystep. My #Suzuki #taishogoto goes through the #M-Vave #MiniUniverse pedal.

A while ago, I snagged a roll of Eastman 5245 #EXR50D movie film, an expired short end, and put some in my trusty #OlympusOM1. Groovy colour shift! Here's a boat in #Margate.

“Average musician makes $12 a month on Spotify. The fact that they are not even able to sell a record and it’s taken from them by rich motherfuckers on streaming platforms who get paid royally by record labels,Ticketmaster, merch companies.

Had a great time at the recent #CoastalElectronauts synth night in Whitstable - always fun to try out new ideas as well as seeing loads of quality electronic music that wouldn't normally be on my radar!

The live stream's archived here. Check it out. #Synthsky #EMOM www.youtube.com/live/btG4c4i...

Here's a gorgeous track that I've been playing so much recently, Flutter, by my Japanese friends Aureole. Chances are you've never heard of them, but that's ok, you can rectify that now and make your life much more enjoyable. #musicsky #japanesepop #psychedelia #kilk youtu.be/RPMTFPhkk-w?...

Let’s get #synthsky back on track!!!
I feel like the music community which was so strong here just a year ago is slowly ebbing away.
