This Saturday 21st at Galatos in Auckland is the first ever Music Machines: “This is your chance to come and play some of these rare vintage and modern synths, meet some of the collectors and learn about the history of electronic music machines in New Zealand” and what a collection!!!! Check here for an updated kit list, but it will also be fascinating to see/hear some of NZs synth luminaries performing including Tom Ludvigson (Trip to the Moon), Nigel Russell (Car Crash Set), Nathan Haines, Lewis McCallum, Tim William MPC Free-Jam & Stress Cadet plus the “Analog Allstars” live techno jam! Also checkout some of the videos on the Facebook page.
The event is being produced by Jason Fishwick (twitter) from Bluevibe Collective with the support of synth-heads from all over New Zealand. I wish I could be there but hopefully there will be lots of video & photos shot to document such a unique local event!
