HA! UPDATE! he's added this to his page -
"The Wretch (thewretch.com) is working on their first album. Mike loves his Metasonix TM-1, and runs all kinds of things thru it. This stuff makes Autechre or Squarepusher sound timid."


Figured I'd share as I'm psyched about this

[Sicklecell666]

make sure you add some carmelized sugar before you drink it..

[vurt]

hey sickle,dunno if you already have but you should listen to the wretch
your kinda thing i think


also forget caramelised sugar

1/2 absinthe 1/2 brandy,knock back in one then do it again,repeat and fade...

[ew]

That's cool,Michael
I remember when Eric Barbour first started Metasonix-I thought "Hmm...vacuum tube synthesizers ".
I've often thought of grabbing one or two of his VCOs and building a modular around them.Now,he's got even MORE toys .
Congrats

yeah - I may be starting my own modular (won't happen till next year if it does) and Metasonix modules will be top on the list.

sickle -

I'll have to look into this absinthe you speak of... or else I'll just have to drink some bleach!

and by the way kids - metasonix gear uses REEL TUBEZ no emulations at all

[vurt]

absinthe if you can get the real thing in america is amazing
trippy and hallucinogenic

but be careful,you can go too deep

[Muff Wiggler]

I've wanted an Agonizer (TX1) since i first saw it

and not just for the nice picture that's on it!


well done Mike, hope you have many good weeks once again, congrats bro

(if they send you any promo modules that you've already got, PM me and I'll buy 'em off ya!)

[endmusik]

I wish I could get demo modules but nope - just sent him some links and he got really excited over "Hope" so asked me to do a sample with the TM-1 and the sherman.

I'm hoping to get some more modules soonish, and I'm also spelunking to see if he want's to craft "the Wretchinator"

ps- how cool is the emoticon? that thing rocks!

pps - I may have to take a trip to the uk at some point, so vurt - keep the absinthe at the ready

[vurt]

you know your more than welcome

ill send a list of the dots stuff i need tho,cant find their stuff for love nor money here
im finding bits tho and building slowly

[Sicklecell666]

this is the company I get it from & I'm in Georgia

http://www.seborabsinth.com/

the trick to getting good absithe is to find the company with the lowest alcohol content in th drink; that lets the wormwood hit you better.

The drink has a high alcohol content to keep you from getting spycho smashed & cutting off your own ear. You won't be getting that tripped out shite that Oscar used to guzzle..

And it tastes like bog water downstream from a leaking sewage recycling plant, but everyone will think your tits cuz you drink it

[vurt]

i get mine from holland
its the stuff with high wormwood content(im not actually supposed to bring it through customs )

but i wrap it up and buy a few bottles of wine as well and wrap them up the same
so they dont usually check so long as i only have 4 or 5 bottles altogether

[endmusik]

goddamn!

well, there goes gear budget for the month of august - time to get me some absinth! er, well I guess I can consider it gear, right
