Max Ax sounds like an amalgamation of early 21st century machines, handheld video games and dial-up to bank machines and multi-flavor soda dispensers… wild associations begin to tumble… something in the circuits has gone playfully awry 🙏a closer listen acloserlisten.com/2024/07/29/scu…

“Excuse me, have you got any cybernetic machine music please?” How about a 15CD box set from Roland Kayn sir? That will do very nicely, thanks frozen reeds

It’s been 3 weeks and my opinion of this album has only gotten higher. This is one of my favorite albums of this decade. I love every second of it. OOKSE 🤝 Backwoodz Studioz A beautiful thing that I hope continues. I’d love to see how this band evolves.

Rest in peace to legend Keith McMillen, way too young to go. We need to give these music technologists their flowers while they are still on this earth, there is a whole universe of history to learn beyond Moog and Buchla. If you care about MIDI, McMillen is part of the canon.

Thanks to a closer listen to the mention! acloserlisten.com/2024/09/01/fal…
