Toss a cat, play some synths

This german lady seems interesting. She is a catowner and a synthowner, and in this clip you see her present her cat to the viewers, toss it away and then play some electronic music for us. It's the tossing that makes it good.

Top 20 Greatest Synths

Posted on 110909 in greatest, list, Sonicstate, synth and top

It's not new, but worth watching if you haven't seen it, or once more if you have seen it. Sonicstate's Top 20 Greatest Synth videos. A bit predictable top list, but very interesting. The only surprise I think is the E-MU Proteus 1 at place 16. Is it that good? I've got to buy one I think...

Sonicstate Top 20 Greatest Synths

Hello everybody!

Posted on 240309 in blog, synth and synthesizer

…or nobody, since this is my first post. I’m starting this blog since I have a great interest in synthesizers and electronic music, and I might as well write about it. I will write about synths I buy, or would like to buy if I had the money, about music made by me or good artists, and maybe things totally unrelated to synths. So, welcome to I Have Synth! (The title is a tribute to the most wonderful song title of them all – Jori Hulkkonen's ”Forgive me father for i have synth”)

And forgive me if I sometimes write in bad English – I’m from Sweden.

About the author

Author:

I Have Synth

Biography:

Been into synthesizers for 15 years, but never a technical geek. I'm a member of the band Velours Perfect, and have had electronic music as a hobby since I stopped playing with G.I Joe Figures. I buy and sell synths all the time, sometimes manically, and my favourite synth varies, right now it is the Alesis Ion. On this blog you can read about whatever comes out of my mind, mostly synthesizer-related stuff though. Bzzt!

I'm also on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook and off course Ihavesynth.
