30 years of synth history and my eternal battle with cable management.

My synth setup has been evolving for exactly 30 years now. Back in the day, I used to buy the latest gear fresh off the market, like the Yamaha AN1x or the Access Virus B. Over the years, I’ve owned various synths from Clavia, KORG, Roland... I think I’m finally done chasing new gear and will stick with what I currently have. It’s the perfect setup for making Chillout and Downtempo.

I took this photo in the dark for a reason. During the day, seeing all the cables drives me crazy. I hide most of them and tie them into a single bundle, but I still know they're there. Anyone else sharing this cable anxiety?

A 90 BPM soulful trip born on a train journey through the Argentine countryside. I tried to capture that steady "on-the-move" feeling using organic textures and vocal chops. If you're into that 90s conscious bounce, this one's for you.
