Hi guys, We=E2=80=99re spoiled here in Seattle. One of the local promoters booked = Egyptian Lover for a two-hour set at noon here on New Year=E2=80=99s = Day. Besides spinning vinyl without the typical digital sync setup, = mixing without headphones at times, he also cranked up a raw TR-808 on = the Funktion-One sound system. After the impact settled in, he cradled = the TR-808 like a boom box and showed off the live controls. What a nice way to start the year! It=E2=80=99s great to have such a = visceral reminder of what vintage 1980=E2=80=99s analog sounds like on a = good system. Brian Willoughby
