Outpost 31 print (a nice one!)



Here is a great looking minimal print, very reminicent of the art of Ron Guyatt and those somewhat semi-famous "space destinations" mock posters. This one is of course to homage the masterpiece "The Thing" by John Comparter, 1982. It represents the US science station, Outpost 31, and you can get a print for a very decent price directly from the artists at the following link:

Latest synth wish: Roland Aira System-1



Above is the Roland (Aira) analogue synthesizer "System 1". It is one of my latest "wishlist" of synths, even though it is not multi-timbral nor touch sensitive. However the sounds coming out of this little beast are astounding and this would be a great addition to my little keyboard set-up. Granted there is only so much one can do with uni-timbral non-touch sensitive keyboards, which in the end do start to take up space, but it is quite a potent little number in itself.
