I also like the fact that it's a senior citizen operating this thing because it's a reminder that some of our most important synth pioneers (Mort Garson and Perrey-Kingsley are the first to come to mind) were born in the 1920s and so this has me thinking about this stuff as "roots music"

Swans at project house Leeds lived up
to expectations. last saw them around 86 at leeds poly. the children of god tour. giras voice

immense. one of those nights where you regret not making the effort to have seen them more
