A Featured Systems Fail! (Patreon)
Content
Hello, hope you're well!
I'm back fresh from Synth East, where Adam Buxton gave us a giggle alongside great stories by John Foxx, many synths and modules were exhibited and classic shoe gaze come Warp records signed electronica was performed (with Seefeel) and plenty more. If you also went I hope you enjoyed it, thanks to those that said hi and that I got to meet, it was wonderful. Video on the event coming in the near future.
On that note many other videos on the way too, the calendar is rammed to the rafters. But while we're on events the London Synth & Pedal Expo (free to attend, though you need a ticket info HERE) is coming up on March 22nd & 23rd so if you can make it pop along for loads of stuff to check out.
FEATURED SYSTEMS FAILED ... surprisingly it took this long!
For the first time (surprisingly) we've had a little failure in our community FEATURED SYSTEMS activities. Nothing major of course, everyone's safe, but in me randomly selected someone that's submitted their system we had someone not see they'd been featured and not converse in the Discord channel for the week they were featured ... I hope that makes sense!
For some time now Featured Systems has been an enjoyable activity, when submission stages are open you're free to submit an image of your set up and then those are randomly selected one per week to be featured and discussed. I've enjoyed the discussed and focus around a given set up that brings and it's been nice to just let that roll and randomly grab one each week. As I say surprising really it's taken until now for someone to not see they've been featured. I haven't given any notice to anyone that's happening so each one will have been a surprise along the way.
While it's tempting chalk it up to a 1 in many case we should probably shake up featured systems and possibly schedule out some random selections so everyone gets some notice.
So ... SUBMISSIONS OPEN! Head to the DivKid Discord (link your Patreon account with your Discord account to access, instructions HERE) and go into the #featured-systems channel and leave a picture of your setup. 1 image is the minimum, you can leave multiple, modular grid links, links to your music etc. All will be noted and saved, then I'll schedule out some random selections, contact those users to inform them and we'll get back to newly featured system discussions in the near future.
All good? Make sense? Let me know, in the Discord as usual where we are daily. So I'll see you there!
Ta ta for now.
