Recently learned that Korg is making a new digital music machine in the accordion format, I've been listening to all the demo music I can find on YT and it seems quite the extensive range of instruments it can simulate, even has a much better violin than most violin imitations. I'd love to get one myself but it's kinda out of sight in cost for now. Perhaps I can swing it in time. I have my plans to create a climate controlled tropical garden. Normally called a greenhouse. But have it fully heated and cooled to stay comfortable for me and the plants. Then add a sound system, and be able to tend the gardens and make music also. (clothes free of course) It has wireless connection so I guess that means it doesn't need to be plugged into an amp to be played through an amp.
I was out in the shop, tinkering on a project and the local FM station was having a 70s weekend playlist. It was phenomenal!! The list really had me in mind as I remember listening to those tunes riding up and down the road during my teenage years. Nothing like bringing back old vibes while trying to get a little work done. You can't go back to those prior times (yet??) but the memories are alive & well. If the objective of music is to make you feel good, that afternoon's tunes were more than successful. More please!!!
