“A gem for Canadian synth nerds out there, the Cantos national music centre in Calgary is without exception the highlight of the tour so far. It was also one of the best (and nerdiest) afternoons of our lives. A beautiful building which houses a DEEP collection of synthesizers, old tyne-based instruments, prepared pianos dating back to the 1500’s, insane pipe organs, and other random rare shit all paled in comparison to the Novachord… an instrument that not only produces some of the most ungodly tones on earth, but it is 1 of 4 known to be functioning on the planet. We have done a quick edit from our journey there, and would like to sincerely thank Brandon Smith for an amazing tour of the place, being a fantastic player that could fully demonstrate the strengths of particular instruments… and for letting us pick his brain about esoteric electronic topics for the entire afternoon” – Excerpt from our blog at RBMA.EXCLAIM.CA
