Three weeks it is!

Do we want a new thread, or just update the first post and title of this one?

Coolio. So what if everyone interested suggested a theme/task and then we can poll it? Could be as varied as: reimagine the Top Gun theme, or make a track that conveys the feeling of looking out the window at your jet engine on fire. I reckon one person suggests a theme/task and we go with it. We c...

Bowie Comp - Does Androgyny Dream of Electric Beats?

Submissions below: First up, Lorez's electro goth track - Bowie Berlin Ideas Great use of German language samples (which I found incredibly hard to find good ones). The The big slow attack pads, reminiscent of a 90s Batman movie, coupled with the percussive hook make for a real driving sound. Next u...

Yeah, for sure. I have a '68 Princeton Reverb Custom RI and it's just lovely http://d1aeri3ty3izns.cloudfront.net/media/48/488863/600/preview.jpg Proper spring reverb tank, lovely tremelo. Plenty clean headroom. I got mine ex demo for less than these new Champs are going for. Can also be very simpl...

Luckily I've not gotten the diecast bug all that bad. I have a smattering of things that interest me. I'm pretty much 100% a 1:64 guy. I do like Tomica, but that started due to Initial D. I did manage to get a Hot Wheels Johnny Lightning Acura Integra Type R, which is the closest thing you can get t...

£799 for the Champ. Think I’d buy a s/h 68 Princeton reissue instead. 5W at home would be cool, but I’m fine with 15W also. In fact, I’d like to replace my Laney VC15 as it’s fairly unreliable, and the Princeton would be a like for like swap. If I was 100% getting a ch...

I ordered it on reverb because I wanted a shop that wasn't owned by corporate overlords. The grabbing hands Grab all they can All for themselves after all It's a competitive world Everything counts in large amounts Everything counts in large amounts… That’s a deep cut in this thread.
