Completely disregard what Apple is trying to tell you: buttons are awesome, knobs are rad, and they make gadgets fun. If anything, we need more of 'em in our daily lives. Case in point? This gallery......

YouTube via Synthiefrau. She definitely gets my props for continuing to put this up after the chair incident. Synthiefrau rocks! Awesome! :)"Hi ,here is a Video from the chaoswomen and her Synthesizer;-))) I mean you tube (lol) and not Ebay.;-))The Chair was from Ikea. A very bullshit:-)"...

flickr set by transanalog "Www.Transanalog.Com What the hell is this, anyway? Synthesizer? Organ? Stringer? Sort of. The Opus 3 was Moog's late entry into the string synthesizer market. I guess it's not bad but I can't say it does anything uniquely well. All Opus 3's (and Rogues and MG-1s and Taurus...

(photo by Eleanor Hardwick) A month ago, we brought you the art-school extravaganza known as the video for Dan Black's track "Alone".  Today, we bring you this new, fresh produce remix of "Alone" by Lovelock, whose simple, synth-laden treatment is as forlorn as can be, especially when thinking of t...

Okay, we can't late.  This remix from Mr Vega is super weird.  We don't quite know how we feel about it.  It sort of makes us a bit uncomfortable, but maybe that was the point.  We mean, if we had never ever heard the original, nearly untouchably great track from Depeche Mode, this remix would s...

Very often, computers and music gear greedily consume whole corners of the room. Here’s a tidy alternative, modest in space consumption as well as in cost. So, what’s so wonderful about DIY creations by our friend Sasa Djuric (aka fibra)? It isn’t just that his stands are recycled ...

The Golden Filter's epicly smooth track "Solid Gold" gets an intense shock to its pulse in this, a remix that is bound to be all over the goddamn place in no time flat.  It's from Russ Chimes, so yeah, it's the truth.  Everything this guy seems to touch lately is, er, gold (sorry).  The hushes an...

Now, why would anyone imagine this wouldn’t have widespread commercial appeal? If you enjoy real analog insanity - crazy noises that challenge the ears - you’ll like these videos sent to us by Hans Tammen, the composer, “endangered guitar” artist, and director of NYC’s ...

Before you correct me, this is actually a Commodore B128. But it’s one of the oddities you’ll see at the Personal Computer Museum. What if all the technology you loved, everything that ran on electricity, came to life and played one epic musical performance? That’s about as best as...
