Cwejman S1 MKII + Livewire Chaos Computer
Mike Brown of Livewire Electronics was one of the first people I met in the modular community when I started some 8 years ago. The Chaos Computer was more of a myth than an actual module in the 5 or so years it took to develop. It would show up in various incarnations, growing in […]

Chicago Reader – Best Synthesizer Geek/One-Man Black-Metal Band
The stereotype of black-metal musicians as murderous, church-burning, white-Âsupremacist pagans in corpsepaint was out of date ten years ago—by now the style has worked its way into almost every corner of the underground, and you can find just about as many kinds of black metallers as you can metalÂheads in general.
