So those guys are like SuperDry® with the nod to Japanese iconography.
That post was a good read. I wish they were smug cunts but they're probably really, really nice guys :(
“We hope that you get a little bit more focused and perhaps a little bit more creative as well. One of the most inspiring things about the OP-1 is that it can't do everything that a computer can do. Those limits boost the creativity. Limitations are OP-1’s biggest feature.”

I now know what those pedestrian nodders must feel when they're walking straight out into the road on Oxford Street now. The elektron stuff alongside truly modular 1v/oct synths is everything I'd honestly been wishing to find in a shop over the last few weeks. So it is London's first modular shop. What really blew me away was the number of new manufacturers entering the fray. When I got my modules a few years ago there were about 6 names I knew of. They had about 6 new set ups I'd never heard of. Amazing stuff.
If you're anywhere near the place be sure to make a visit and get some demos.
First on my list is what my system has been missing: a sequencer!
Also got to see the Octatrack in action. I 'get' it a little more. Maybe next year but for now it's gonna be more modules.
