The limited edition Korg SV-1 Black Reverse wears a uniquely modern colour scheme with black keys and red accidentals. Designed with every detail in mind, from the red vacuum tube and panel LEDs to the new black knob heads and matte finished side, this limited edition model will turn heads!

Weekend is here so let’s enjoy it with Pomo!

Phillipi and Rodrigo have a fondness for synths and classic Brazilian sound. Side A is a playful acid sound created that’s been thoroughly road tested on the Despacio sound system. This is the Side B called ‘Gueto De Gent’ and this is a tight modern Balearic Beat for the slower dancefloor.

This seemingly worthless synth/calculator hybrid weighing in at under a pound has somehow found fame and fortune despite looking like a kid's toy. Its ultra cheesy sounds have been discovered and immortalized in the hit songs of such artists as Trio for "Da Da Da" and White Town. The Casio VL-1 or VL-Tone as it's also called has 29 little calculator-type button keys, five preset and one user memory patches, built-in rhythm machine (waltz, swing, rock, samba, etc.) and a 100-note sequencer. There is no chance at any external or MIDI control and there are no filters or effects. There is an LFO with vibrato and tremolo effects and an ADSR envelope.

Pure heaven!
