Well, there are a couple of things. These days, I rely a lot on the Moog One. It’s become a real idea machine for me. I find it pretty intuitive and definitely inspirational. I have these little stations set up at my spot, always ready to record, that have become semi-permanent: a few different synth areas, Wurli, Arp Solina, guitar, bass, vocals, percussion, drum machine zone, drum kit, and a pedal chain for inserts. These are meant to be performative and fun places for ideas.

That’s a really easy place for me to get ideas going. That, and probably my EMS Synthi AKS setup too.
