Hello ! Welcome in our page of Electronic Music from France. Excellent music ! We have appreciated your sounds & your gear list :) Sincerely from our Space Land. N I G H T B I R D S
Thanks for the comment and for the photo comment. What you see on the photo is just a very small part of the synthmuseum.... To answer your question about the modulars: Ruus has a huge Synthesizers.com system. I have two Elektor Formant modulars which can be combined to function as one.
Thanks for your message. I am new to this MySpace thing, and have been pleased to find some of my favorite synth/electronic/new age artists here! I am very familiar with Tempustry. I have the debut CD and, in fact, wrote a review of it for Amazon.com. If you have not read it before, please go check it out - and feel free to use it on the Tempustry website if you wish to. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to hearing the 2nd album. Wish I could have made it to Rosfest, but it just didn't work out this year. Thanks, JEFF MATHEUS, Indianapolis
