Wiring. So many cables. I am one with the cables. Maybe I AM a cable. Only 800 feet more to go… #ElectronicMusic #IndustrialMusic #Synthsky #HomeStudio #Synthesizers

Never forget.

Things are finally getting back to normal & I’m settling into the new studio. Here’s a peek at how it’s shaping up. Nothing’s plugged in which is why it’s so organized looking. 😆

New studio! Um… it might not be ready QUITE yet. (In my defense, a tiny bit of this stuff’s my wife’s…)

New Gear Day! The Oberheim DX is an early digital drum machine (12-bit). It features 18 sounds - 7 tunable drums, most w/ 3 variations. Not much, but you can get a lot of variety out of it! They’re on swappable EPROMs, too, so it’s expandable. 🧵1/ #IndustrialMusic #SynthSky #MusicProduction

THANKS, @etherdiver.bsky.social, for the killer review! I appreciate the support!

THANK YOU @florgoth.bsky.social! I really appreciate the kind words and support!

I made the most gloriously unhinged graphic for this. Hahahaha!

This is one of the funniest take-downs of bullshit AI-powered consumer tech I’ve read in a while. It’d do Hunter Thompson proud. Worth a moment to read. Sort of amazing it came from the NY Times. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/14/m...

This explains a fucking LOT. Bleh.

MIDI is fine and all, but have you considered wiring up your studio with CAT6 cable? #ElectronicMusic #MusicProduction #Sunthsky

My cat Smidge and the body double she travels with to help thwart paparazzi. (Obviously it didn’t help this time.)

Huge thanks to @asurasunil.bsky.social for spinning “Fascist Beatdown” (@voidscanmusic.com Remix) on his Seven For Sunday mixshow! Honored to be included with such great songs. hearthis.at/asurasunil/dj-asurasunils-sunday-seven-mixshow-396-20260329 #IndustrialMusic #EBM #ElectronicMusic

Making patches for the OB TEO-5. This synth is so lush - great for pads. The 2-pole filter isn’t the most aggressive but it can slide btwn low-, band- & high-pass modes for incredible variation. And the OSC x-mod makes it easy create some MEAN sounds. 🖤 #ElectronicMusic #Synthsky #IndustrialMusic

I’m listening to Contempt (2001 Metropolis), the 1st album by @assemblage23.bsky.social. It’s a sweeping, pounding, grinding, often melodic mashup of electronic genres welded to industrial music’s frame. 25 years later it still sounds exciting. 1/ #IndustrialMusic #EBM #Assemblage23 #ElectronicMusic

🔥Special thanks to the Anti Fascist Black Metal Network (@antifascistbmntwrk.bsky.social) for the review!🔥 Pre-order Terminal Days on digital, tape, or CD! Album drops 4/8 - hear the singles now! negativeagent.ampwall.com/album/terminaldays #IndustrialMetal #IndustrialMusic #Metal #Goth

I just made a patch for the SH-101 that nearly ripped my eyeballs out. It’s this grind-y, rave-y pulse-wave thing with a lot of edge to it. Turn on portamento & jump between 2 octaves to melt down the dance floor. Goddamn I love this synth. #SynthSky #ElectronicMusic #Rave #IndustrialMusic #EBM

Pinching myself! I added an amazing dream synth to my studio - the Roland SH-101 from 1983. I’ve wanted one forever. Not only does it sound fantastic, but it’s a classic piece of electronic music history.🧵1/ #IndustrialMusic #IndustrialMetal #ElectronicMusic #80sMusic ##Trance #Synthsky

I don’t know what Roland’s marketing team was snorting when they came up with the ad campaign for 1983’s SH-101 but I guarantee it was high-grade shit! I love these ads & I legit miss the 80s. A truly batshit crazy time that I’m glad I experienced. #ElectronicMusic #80s #Synthesizers #Synthsky

I just spent 30 minutes doing something on the Yamaha TX802 synth. Then I checked the manual and discovered it can be done with one button. ONE BUTTON. Read the fucking manual, kids. Read the fucking manual. ⚙️🖤 #ElectronicMusic #Synthsky #IndustrialMusic #Synthpop #Synthwave #EBM #MusicProduction

The Black Box is a triumph, three CDs of rarities, oddities, b-sides & remixes, all housed in an actual steel box, which was itself packaged in a fishnet baggie with a numbered label (10,000 copies made). 3/

The Black Box was originally released in 1994 to celebrate 13 years of the legendary industrial, punk & alternative label. Included among the bands Wax Trax cultivated, released, or distributed are Ministry, Front 242, Front Line Assembly, Revolting Cocks, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult… 2/

VERY FEW copies of the Terminal Days: Special Edition tape remain! It’s inspired by the Wax Trax Records Black Box compilation. Don’t know what that is? Read on! 🧵1/ ⚙️ negativeagent.bandcamp.com/album/terminaldays ⚙️ negativeagent.bandcamp.com/album/terminal-days #IndustrialMusic #IndustrialMetal

I needed some band photos to help promote the release of Terminal Days, so my friend, photographer @ponycargirl.bsky.social came by and shot these in my apartment building’s weird murder basement. (Lol) (Pics by Megan Green) #IndustrialMusic #IndustrialMetal #Metal #BandPhotos

New gear day! Alesis HR-16B drum machine (1990). Total time capsule w/original box, merch inserts & everything. Sounds KILLER. 16-bit samples specifically designed for aggressive electronic music. Much heavier than the standard HR-16. 🖤⚙️🔥 #ElectronicMusic #Synthsky #IndustrialMusic #EBM #Techno

Oh hey! I had a good toy auction. Popy Cyborg series Ninja Arashi figure from 1970. About 4” tall. I love vintage vinyl toys that have cool internal details inside them. These things are little gems. I’ve got most of the Cyborg series, still missing two of them. The hunt continues!

What I chase when I’m not buying synths… Vintage Japanese toy auction happening soon!
