Annoying Synth Neighbor

N.S.F.W.

Ahhh man. This is epic. I’ve lived with this dood. Some days I am this dood. Brilliant!

“a short film about having an annoying roommate with a lot of synths.” By Martin Schoeneborn

If you dig tripped out synths (if you’re still reading this im sure you do) check out both volumes of Bridgetown Breaks. Each record contains a special Analog Synth section recorded directly from a Multimoog, a Yamaha SY-2 and a Korg MS-10. It’s filled with massive bass notes, detailed textures, boops, beeps, and modulated sweeps. Fun for days. Try it with a loop pedal and some friends! Add efx for astral traveling.

Peace be with you,
