Hard-Core Gear Porn Friday!!!

Old Schoolers Anonymous. Check this shit out. No computer, beeyatch! He makes songs the old fashioned way. He types them in to an MC-4, one note at a time, like Real Men Used To. I assume, from the top-level domain tag of his site, that this guy is from Brazil. I also assume that he either has a trust fund or no kidneys, because there is some serious coin invested in this synth collection. Click the magic 3D spinnie thingie, and be transported to the Land That Time Forgot, and marvel in wonder at the Arp 2500 and 2600, Synthacon, Obie 4-voice, and other tasty treats.

I listened to the MP3s on the front page, and they’re not as terrible as is usual for people that have this much kit. He likes Vangelis, but hey, who doesn’t? On the bright side, there’s no Mackie mixer in with this roughly hundred-thousand dollar setup. No danger of that. Back when the studio only had about $75,000 worth of stuff, he was on the Behringer/Tascam trip (as witnessed in the above photo). He has since upgraded to what I assume is one of those Roland V-Mix Mo ’Phatt Hard Disk thingies. Since I’ve never made fun of those on this site before, I won’t start now.
