Cammi Granato (plus Eddie Lack) with Synths, Pedals, and More

Cammi Granato sits comfortably next to a live board featuring Red Panda Context, Particles and Bitmap pedals, Make Noise 0-coast and Strega standalone synthesizers, and an AKAI MPX-8. Above is a Roland SE-02 synth, monitors, and “an electro-acoustic thing made by Flesh Vomit.”

Canine Eddie Lack chills nearby as well, providing us with a rare DogSynth pic.

From our friends Scott and Deb via Mastadon. They are a big part of the group that made the recent Wonder Valley Experimental Music Festival happen. You can see our highlight reel of all the acts from the festival in the video below.

Tuna and Novation Bass Station

Tuna is back after a hiatus from CatSynth. And he is now sporting a cool blue and white collar that matches the Novation Bass Station on which he is napping.

Hello @catsynth this is Tuna. It’s been a long time since he was last featured here with a synth. As you can see, he now has a blue and white collar. There are houses very near us that are being built so we need Tuna to wear a collar for ID.

And, appropriately, he’s napping on top of a @wearenovation Bass Station 2 which matches his colors.

Wordless Wednesday: Owens Lake

A scene from the exposed lakebed of the mostly-dry Owens Lake. This is the sink of the Owens River, which cuts a valley between the eastern Sierra Nevada and the ranges that separate this valley from the even deeper and dryer Death Valley to the east.

Owens Lake is the location of our latest highway video, which follows California Highway 136 along the northern and eastern sides of the lake.
