Mild Slopes: 1776-1976

Now, I know what you're thinking, "Didn't the Puritans persecute Quakers?". Yes, they did. This is just a harmless little book alright?

. . . Towards a Quaker View of Synthesizers

Mild Slopes

United States

This blog is about electronic music instruments made by the Roland corp. in the late 70's and early 80's (mostly pre-MIDI instruments that deal in wholesome CV and Gate signals). It's also about my conversion to Quakerism, my fondness for C.S. Lewis, The Epcot Center, eggnog, oatmeal flavored soap, etc, etc. Herein I will try to connect the real or imagined dots between them.
Bits of comedy throughout.

Join me as we apply the Quaker concepts of plainness and simplicity to the creation of electronic music.

“Onward and Upward! To Narnia and the North!”

Please Note: I am not an authorized technician and can not offer you technical advice on electronic music instruments.
