Korg Monotron Demo

A few weeks ago, we reported on the new Korg Monotron synthesizer, a $67 synth from Korg with a touch-sensitive keyboard. The battery-powered synth is a full-featured analogue synth, with VCO, LFO and VCF knobs and a ribbon controller.
A ton of people have bought these (hey, who can go wrong with an analogue synth for $67!), but I’ve yet to see anything interesting done on one.
Koishistyle comes to the rescue with a great demo of the Monotron – it’s a song recorded entirely with one of these mini synths, and it’s fantastic. Check it out:
It just proves that it’s not the size, but how you use it that counts!
Thanks to Bakis for the tip!

After watching that, I’m never going to play any of my synths again! Talk about making me feel musically impotent!
Very well done, track and video. I bet Korg could use this to promote that thing. Imagine cheap multitrackrecording and this machine in the 80th.
*drools*
proper promotion of this, could *easily* bring in a whole new generation into the synth scene…
