MODCOM : is a new project from Ronan Harris which uses analog modular synthesizers and analog sequencers for live sound generation. Sequences and sounds are patched, manipulated, effected, re-patched and mixed live. This kind of performance was common to 70’s synth pioneers who used walls of synths and cables to make sound but now its use will be for 21st century electronic beats, rhythms and soundscapes

Japanese Synthpop – sorry but its all JPOP, LOL
For a long time I have struggled to find a Japanese Synthpop group. I have many like Minekawa, Two Mix, Soft Ballet, and others, but somehow they don’t stick to my ribs. The synth scene is alive and kicking in Japan as POP Academy proves. This is required reading, and yes, there will be a test. Especially find and read the overseas synthpop lists.
Problem seems to be the domination of the JPOP scene in Japan, since even groups like Two-Mix (who actually describes themselves as synthpop artists sounds like JPOP
Looking for JPOP, than this is the site for you >> http://www.jpop.com/

Well, to be honest JPOP may at times sound quite cute actually, LOL
Nucleus SoundLab is proud to announce ReCombination
ReCombination Released for Propellerheads Reason 3 + 55mb Demo Refill Released! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nucleus SoundLab is proud to announce ReCombination, a brand-new Refill for Propellerheads Reason 3.0+. Reason 3 introduced the amazing Combinator to producers everywhere - which gives sound designers the ability to layer Reason instruments and effects in a semi-modular fashion, while also providing an unprecedented amount of real-time performance control. ReCombination's goal is twofold: to bring a huge amount of quality sample content to Reason in an affordable package; and to push the limits of the Reason Combinator format with fresh, unique sound design. Lineage patchset Released for Korg Legacy! --------------------------------------- Lineage is a high-quality universal refill consisting of 320 presets for the award-winning Korg Legacy Edition . Through dedicated work of sound designer Richard Lichten, the possibilities of these beautiful instruments are revealed for the first time, providing you with an exceptional arsenal of sounds for some of the best synthesizers ever. The highlight of this collection is the Legacy Cell bank. It features 128 presets including rich beautiful pads, wonderful moving ambient atmospheres, deep basses, dance-usable leads, stabs, and arpeggios. These patches serve as thoughtful sonic inspiration, and provide outstanding bread&butter sounds for everyday musical tasks. Through careful use of the modular design and the effects of this uber-synth, the Legacy Cell set really shows the beauty and sonic potential of the latest generation of virtual synthezisers. Also included are four banks of immediately usable sounds for the MS 20 and the Korg Polysix. These presets provide the core of this set. While these two MS 20 banks are general purpose sounds, the two Polysix banks have a special emphasis on dance sounds and arpeggios. Of course the Polysix banks focus on the major strengths - filter and arpeggiator - of this synthesizer. Two additional banks are for the MS-20 are centered around vocal-like sounds, which takes advantage of the special sound character and unique serial filter design of this synth. Analog choir-like sounds, mellotronish voices, moving vocal sounds with shifting formants, and deep vocal effects are especially suited for ambient and film composing tasks and can provide sonic spice for your tracks.
