Next value ?


16 september 2016 is a sad day - RIP Don Buchla


Discovered this Today ... my heart is heavy.
I'd like to thank you for inspiration - We will continue to light up the fire of modular synthesis.

I discovered your astonishing modular synths the same year you died and won't have ever the chance to thank you in person . May you receive these words,wherever you are.
You opened my eyes to new sounds and ways of making sound.

Your work has always been so underestimated -Making Open Modular Open-Source Re-Edits of your 100/200 series synths is a way i think right to give thanks to your work . Freeing things to common knowledge instead of firing such a creator you were from his own business after so many years.

 But history often shows that forward geniuses are not well accepted in their times. You were such a Genius. May you rest in peace Donald , you have a place in my Pantheon .
