I’ve spent all this time longing for a high-end performance instrument (Music Easel, Black and Gold Shared System, etc.) and I somehow forgot that I already had one in my basement. I still don’t know how to play it very well, but I wouldn’t know what to do with a Buchla either.
It was my late grandfather’s, and when I asked my grandma if I could see it, she told me I could take it if I put an effort into learning it.
In recent years I had somewhat given up on playing it, as it’s very loud and I didn’t want to disturb my apartment neighbors with my aimless noodling. Now I’m in a house and I can play it as loud as I want. It’s very exciting and I have a new perspective on music and sound since I’ve last used it.
