Korg Kaossilator - KO-1

Hey there...
Got myself a second-hand Kaossilator last week and have been having a ball with it. It has some genuinely useful sounds in it and is freakishly simple to figure out. It's the most fun I've had jamming in a long time. Just drop a rhythm into it, add a bassline and away you go. I uploaded a jam (warts and all) I recorded this morning as a example of what it sounds like and how easy it is to play. Straight outta the KO-1 into my laptop. I think this synth is way too much fun, but I'll let you judge for yourself. Sorry my playing is little "off" in spots, but considering the interface I think you'll forgive me. If you can stand it you'll hear me hit a few sweet spots. I use the major blues scale (my personal fav for jamming) and rotate through a few tasty presets along the way. I hit my stride about 4mins in and add a lead line over the bassline about 6mins in finishing off with some drum fills before the fade out.
Anywho... I think you'll get the point. Hope you dig it.....

Cool, I hear those things are wonderful to experiment with.
Nice groove, sounds like fun synthpop which I'm a fan of.
I especially like when the noisy lead comes in.
You should do a video next time.
