Sometimes we feature cats with instruments that are more analog than analog.
If you have cat-and-music videos, you can share them with us via facebook, Twitter @catsynth, or by contacting us.

“live set – 3 seperate noises in one video for your convenience! happy to be celebrating my 1000th post on the best internet community in the world, Muffwiggler. thanks to my fellow wigglers for the awesome advice and the awesome music that i listen to constantly!
the first two sounds are more percussion oriented, the last more sequency. i premade the vocal loops to save some time and to save you from hearing too much of my lovely boyvoice.”

Weekend Cat Blogging with Luna: Modular Synth
Luna sits down to relax near the modular synth. The purple Monorocket case is completely packed with modules and a mess of wires that are the result of improvised patching. Fortunately, Luna seems to show no interest in the wires, but is more focused on her toys, such as the blue fish (one of her favorites).
The modular is currently set up in the living room for practicing ahead of my duo performance tomorrow night with David Samas. Apropos of Weekend Cat Blogging, the theme of the performance is leopard print. You can see a video of our past performance below and read more about it in this post.

Carnival of the Cats will be up tomorrow at Mind of Mog.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator. Our modular synth contains modulators 🙂

CatSynth video: Engineer by Paul Hayworth
Submitted by Paul Hayworth via our Facebook page.
“My cat played all synths on this track and Catnip Marraccas.”
Released 6.05.13 on electrocuted Wilma tunes. www.electrocuted.moonfruit.com www.paulhayworth.bandcamp.com Shot in Cambridgeshire, the worlds home of Genetic Engineering, the video explores the relationship between man, science and creation.
Additional artwork from Addenbrookes Hospital, various research institutes, the very gothic looking Ely Cathedral and other religious artifacts, from the Genome project to the first cloned animals (and probably humans), Paul Hayworth takes a wild walk to the darker side of our future.
Half pig, half human on a dark night in the earths history with a full moon blazing, maybe we will one day play God and start creating monsters of our own choosing. Mutants or genetically engineered beings will become reality and let loose on an unsuspecting world.
It may very well have already happened!!!!
