Well I'm loving the ES-1 but can't even comment on the SP-555 cause I'm still waiting for the bloody thing to arrive! I'm buying a Lofi-12 as well, and even an XFM to use as a synth along wth the RoAT. I already have the Roland A-49 so once I get that other stuff I'll be sorted (finally).TGN wrote:So SP-USER, you're a happy owner of an es-1 and a sp-555 is coming to your home soon, too? That's great to read man and i hope you'll be satisfied this time.
The only other piece of gear I want is the Teenage Engineering PO-35 Speak, but they're currently out of stock everywhere unless I'm prepared to pay an inflated price for one, and I'm not gonna do that. I'll just have to wait for new stock to arrive.
That would be awesome dude, I really want you to do that and to be fair that's at least four of you now that have hinted you want to do such a thing.TGN wrote:Hahaha, i really would like to participate in an abba battle. I could use the w30 and the digitakt, if it should be a non-sp-environment. Let's do the unholy nonsp abba xmas tape! Run of the Hind and Danswift shall participate with their akais!
(And on 1.1.23 we're all bannend here, because the sp-ghosts are upset!)
Do you want me to start an ABBA flip thread? I actually have a very specific list of four ABBA tracks that I would like to see the homies here tackle, so if you wanted I could list them and ask the participants to choose any of the four tracks to flip!
That way, not only is there variety in what people produce, but also variety in which track they chose. I will say this though, I would much rather hear an ABBA remix than an ABBA flip, sort of like what Zindan did with that Japanese track. I'm not sure if that was technically called a remix, but you know what I mean, basically a modified version of an ABBA track done on your SP, or if you want, on any hardware you like if you want it as an open battle.
People keep mentioning this ABBA thing but it never happens, so like I said, let me know in this thread and as long as at least two of you agree to it, I will start the thread. One of the tracks I have in mind is one that hardly ever gets any attention but is absolutely killer, and to be quite honest I think most people would have serious fun remixing it and making it their own cause it's a very odd but clever mash-up of various musical styles!
Not entirely sure myself yet, but I at least intend to aim for a melodic but industrial feel, sort of like an industrial soundscape built over a melodic backbone or vice versa.ellaguru wrote:cool i like Throbbing Gristle but i don't konw i what kind of type of industrial noise are you involved, curious to know
