Obsolete Machines – Free From LABS

There may not be any free lunches, but there is a free good noise plug-in

Over at the Spitfire Audio site you’ll find this cool plug-in. Did we mention that it’s gratis? Here’s the release:

LABS releases LABS Obsolete Machines – a riot of hand built and modified machines, curated and created by electronic anarchist Sam Battle AKA Look Mum No Computer. 

Recorded on location at his museum in Kent (UK), electrify your compositions with sounds from the GAMEBOY Megamachine, Sega MegaDrive Synth, and a gargantuan 1000 oscillator Megadrone.

A digital guided tour of a museum filled with curious and hand-built eclectic and voltage driven monstrosities. This all-access pass around one of Britain’s most unique collections of obsolete gadgets, apparatus and computer-based machinery shows that as long as you are armed with a soldering iron and determined attitude you can extend the usefulness of tech – repurposing it far beyond being relegated to the scrap pile.
