CD Spotlight

Our man Satoshi Tomiie kicks off Renaissance's new 3D compilation series with a bang. The release consists of three CDs, each one with a different flava: Club, Studio and Home. Satoshi, known for his influential label, Saw Recordings and his blistering live shows (The Saw Recordings party at the WMC is a must!), leads off with the Club mix showcasing his live mixing skills with the latest tracks. Studio is Mr. Tomiie at his finest, remxing and chopping up his own tracks mixed with some of his favorite ear candy. And Home is a more downtempo mix of some of his favorite tracks including Miles Davis and Aphrodisiac. Kudos to Renaissance for leading off their new series with a true pioneer. LISTEN!

Digital Spotlight

Bombay offers up their second digital download release, Fred Everything's Forever on Beatport. Chunky, groovy vibes make this a must in your crate to kick the party into high gear. LISTEN!

Vinyl Spotlight

Francois Kevorkian and Junkie XL drop their re-rubs of Coldplay's Talk for the masses. Both remixers deliver understated, quality versions of Coldplay's latest single off their X&Y release. Nice early evening chuggers offer a proper vocal alternative. LISTEN!

../ Arturia Prophet V Now Available

After causing a sensation at NAMM this past January, Arturia announced their new Prophet V is now shipping world wide. The Prophet V is a virtual replica of both a Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 and a Prophet VS. In a new twist, Arturia as enabled the user to combine both synths via their unique HYBRID mode.

Arturia's Prophet V in Hybrid Mode

Nine Inch Nails maestro, Trent Reznor, comments, "when Arturia told me about their plans to create a hybrid Prophet 5 and VS, I was excited by the idea. When I got my hands on it I was blown away. The Prophet VS was an integral part of NIN's sound - strangely digital sounding, but somehow warm. It's capable of really sounding aggressive and unique. An old friend is back with a vengeance!"

The Prophet V is a dynamic instrument when in Prophet HYBRID mode, which combines these two legendary synthesizers in a stacked mode, enabling new and never heard before sounds to be created. The Prophet V is now available at $249 US or €199

The Future: France's Arturia continues it's string of hits with the Prophet V. With Arturia's devotion to quality, excellent user interfaces and bringing this all to the musician at an extremely low cost, other virtual synth makers are now all looking up at the new high water mark.
