    1. Then there will be the people griping about all the stuff you couldn’t cover!

      Looks like this is coming together nicely. Must be tough editing all the footage down to standard film length.

    1. When i get mine i can gift you a digital copy if thats ok with everyone . i thought i was going to have to buy a player until i remembered ps3 had a blu-ray

    2. Synth meetup = sausage fest.

      It’s not the documentary’s fault – the audience for modular synths is mostly middle aged white guys.

      1. RE “It’s not the documentary’s fault – the audience for modular synths is mostly middle aged white guys.” – Thank you – that’s it exactly, we’re just reporting on what’s there. I find that Carl Craig comment pretty offensive BTW – Carl Craig isn’t a token anything – he’s one of the world’s most enduring and respected techno artists, and a modular user.
