My old Ensoniq ESQ-1 and Speaking of Hardware…

by ivonne on Apr.04, 2009, under Video

I feel I should write about this old keyboard that I had, it was my first keyboard, and I thought it was the cat's pajamas. So heavy, so freaking heavy for me to carry around, and it had a function that you could record and playback. The sounds * i think i only used 3 from this beauty -- were all really cool.

I bought it because I was looking for a cheap synth in Austin,Texas. We ran across that one at a local music shop, and done and done, it was mine.

There is a review for the Ensoniq ESQ-1 at Vintage Synth Explorer.

I ended up giving it away to a friend who I played music with when I moved up here to NY, because it was having problems turning on -- He ended up fixing it because he is this super electrician with instruments. I wish I had the capacity to open things up and understand what was going on. I am sloppy with a soldiering iron, and my hands are shaky, so I just assume I would be a bad study for dealing with small boards, and even tinier parts...lol.

I drink a lot of coffee, and have a lot of energy, so I am not the best with the whole putting tiny things together sort of thing...hahaha

Song idea for “Lola 2″

by ivonne on Mar.30, 2009, under Video

I came up with another song idea instead of finishing up a song last weekend. I really hate finishing songs because I feel they get boring if I work on them too much. Its like what appeals to me at the beggining of the process is gone, and then it turns into a headache. I know, i just have to get over it :P
Anyways, this song is going to be called Lola 2, I use Imposcar alot! I really don't know what I would do without it. Someday I'll grow out of it, and my stuff will quit sounding so '80's...But not yet!

Added “The Steampunk Home” to Links

by ivonne on Mar.24, 2009, under Video

The Steampunk Home is a wonderful reference for victorian/steam home furnishings and photo shoots. Take the time and look through the posts, I especially like the ideas for wall decals and fixtures.  Hopefully Spring will inspire me to decorate the apartment we just moved into here in Williamsburg, and I will look at this site, as well as old Domino magazines for ideas.
