Hey hey...
I have groups from my music schools in the studio a couple of times every year...Its always great to show them the time line from the chamberlin rhythmate to the MK II rhythms & fills to Strawberry fields...and beyond.
Same thing goes for doing the whole theremin to modular to mini moog to dx7 to no wait a minute...
Oh yeah...btw I am back...like herpes.
Best regards
Mattias

I love the fact that you are sharing your Tron and teaching others about it. That's just great!

Hi All,

Just returned from my son's high school where I was asked to talk about
the history of the Mellotron and give a demo. The class is electronic
music composition and and before the kids got to the MIDI contollers and
ProTools, the teacher thought it would be fun to see something from the
past. I must admit, I had a blast. Very good group and they were
pretty amazed by the white box. I think the band directors had as much
fun as I did. I posted a picture in the photo section of the group for
all to see.
