  • Has Roland Outdone the SP404 MK2 with the P6 Sampler? | Promotion vs Community: Finding New Networks

    Focusing on the gear this week as Roland released their cheeky ARIA P6 Sampler. If you've been hanging around for a while you know how much we love 'em so we're taking a look and seeing where this pocket-sized prize sits in our arsenal.

    Another cool lil' gadget that caught our eye is the Demon Box from Eternal Research. This device picks up electromagnetic waves and allows you to mangle them with precision. Definitely one for the Experimental artists.
    Big news in the Community this week also as we welcome the one and only Bendu to the Audionautic Records Roster. We'll be discussing his new release 'Woolgathering' with us in full next week for his artist spotlight but for now we rejoice and support his album on Bandcamp:
