I've reached that magical age where getting a modular synth set up sounds like a great idea.
Listening to old Tangerine Dream, Gorgio Morodor and Throbbing Gristle records probably hasn't been helping that. They've always been a fascination though, the mad scientist patching cables to create otherworldly sounds with little reason or rhyme. And all the electronic music I listen to (mostly industrial like Throbbing Gristle, Coil, Einstruzende Neubauten and stuff like Pig) all have their roots in modular synths.
So that'll be a project for the future (far off in the future, the gear's damn expensive!).
In the meantime, my favourite band just announced an Australian tour in December, the week after my birthday. So I'm figuring out if I want to see them twice like I did in 2015, and if I go up to Brisbane or down to Melbourne as well as the Sydney gig.
Thus concludes another boring entry in the blog that is mine.
Boomshanka.

@pimenta Electronic music has been a more recent (past decade or so) development for me. I'm a rock nut at heart, but I absolutely love experimental art, and early industrial and the more fringe derivatives that have popped up over the years really does it for me.
