If you’ve been following boing boing lately, you probably recognize the name: monochrom. I have the great honor of supporting them on the digital decks, while they pull some amazing out of their art asses for the unwashed Florida masses. This is a once in a lifetime type of thing. You WILL hate yourself and your children will no longer respect you if you do not make plans to join us.

Still not convinced? Read Mr. Ian’s invitation below, and mark your calendars for Tuesday, January 22, 2008.

Brand new from the brains at KORG. Can’t wait to get my hands on this. I like the synths on my KP3, but if this has more expression than those 10 synths, we’re going to be in for one hell of a little instrument. And at $199, you can’t beat the price either. Here’s some info about it from Korg:

The KAOSSILATOR is a pocket-sized musical instrument that puts a KAOSS touchpad interface on 100 of Korg’s world renowned synth sounds and innovative performance features! You can instantly play musical phrases simply by tapping or sliding your finger across the KAOSSILATOR’s touchpad-no previous skills required!

The KAOSSILATOR liberates synthesizer sounds from the keyboard. It gives keyboardists, guitarists, and DJs a convenient way to add fresh new elements to band performances or to DJ sets. Even untrained music enthusiasts can enjoy an entirely new level of musical involvement and expression.

KAOSSILATOR comes packed with one hundred powerful sound programs that combine Korg’s legendary modeling synthesizer engine with the effects from the KAOSS PAD series, perfect for any musical genre. The horizontal axis is assigned to note/pitch, while the vertical axis is assigned to parameters such as: cutoff, feedback, or modulation depth, giving you a wide range of performance possibilities. In addition to classic synthesizer sounds like leads, basses and sound effects, there are sounds that faithfully simulate piano, guitar, and trumpet as well as looped and one-shot drum sounds, making the KAOSSILATOR a never-ending source of inspiration to stimulate your creativity.

Sounds sick as fuck.
