OP-1 On My Christmas List


I can't stop raving about this nifty little gadget. This is a dream for producers who are serious performers like myself. I first saw this synthesizer in the music video for Swedish House Mafia's global club-crusher "One (Your Name) ft. Pharrell". In the video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxuEl8qkErs ) , you see a bandaged hand creating a sick, filthy synth from a simple 4 beat kick! SICK!

This is the part where all beat-makers/slash kool kinders pay serious attention: This small baby (about 30cm give or take) features 2 octaves of keys that have been well tested for repeated bashing when the music and lights bring the clawing animal out of you. The way I see it, the OP-1 (that's what it's called) together with my new ibanez electric axe, will soon become a regular feature in my stage performances. Not only does it feature great workability with an insane library of beat-raping sounds, it's also got the sickest colour-coding, making it an absolute essential for the artist who wants to rock the crowd in monstrous style.

Next time you see me on stage with a drummer, a keyboardist, my axe and THIS BABY, just know that I'm packing one helluva voetsek-attitude! Gadgets like these bring that out in me.

20!
