👼 I've Died And Gone To Synth Heaven... 👼

Yeah, my solution has been to put stuff I covet onto wishlists and wait for the deal to come round again as they nearly always do. By which time the urge to buy it has often subsided - Tantric shopping!

LOL, sting is approving! but how do you seek out a juno6 for years and years and finally get offered a mint one after buying a pile of alternatives.... like a month after buying a polysix.... how could I say no! HOW?! I bought it and I've been playing it and snuggling it before bed and... and... this is getting gross, sorry.

I got in the right mood and have been drinking beer and watching Jarre tonight.

Guess what I got in the right mood to listen to this eve... "Zangar, Yo ti me tsung yen, Pooka fahli..."

...finally get offered a mint one after buying a pile of alternatives....

That's great - a great opportunity to declutter the alternatives? 😲 My OP-1 often comes to bed with me but I've even used it on public transport - How sordid is that ?!

I'm not sure I've mentioned this here before but there's a fantastic series of podcasts on Spotify: "Planet Jarre" - Matt Berry interviews JMJ about his life and music. Altogether there's almost 3 hours of interview. I have to confess I always had the impression that the man himself was a bit of a pretentious bell-end but he comes over really quite open and down to earth in these interviews. Pleased to discover I was wrong; he's just super geeky French style!

what the heck? You mean abandon a midi-ed polysix and a prophet600? I wouldn't be able to do it... although my mks30 and 50 are feeling distinctly less cool but they're rack units. and are nestled ina closet right now
