Talking about Endtroducing: anyone knows what record store is
pictured on the album cover? is it in the bay area? looks good!

And don't you just love our musical world, where you can produce
a great sounding album in 10 cubic ft of unused-corner space?

This brings me to ask for advice: I'm looking for a portable midi
sequencer/tone generator that I could bring to work for use at
lunch time in the park :) something I could compose beats and
phrases prototypes on before using the sequences with 'real'
sound modules, but also something that would have good usable
sounds too. I know of two, the Roland PMA-5, and the new Yamaha
QY-70, but haven't tried any yet. Does anyone have any experience
with any of those, or others that might do the trick?

Also, I know a few people on this list have the Ensoniq EPS sampling
keyboard (which I have, love and would recommend to anyone on a
limited budget). I got a while ago a 4X + SCSI memory expander and
have had my old 2X memory expander in a box since then. If anyone
is interested in it, make offer. (doesn't have SCSI interface).
