Congratulations!
Any chance you'll be setting up a page on MySpace so that we can sample your creations?  _________________ I've been dreaming of a disco ever since... |

I think it's more likely that i'll do novelty cover versions and maybe put them on youtube, probably with a paper bag over my head to minimise the embarrassment. Alas, I lack the songwriting madskills necessary to produce original material: as Andy McCluskey said on "synth britannia," unfortunately the synths don't write the songs for you! _________________ someone wants my job, it is someone in this building! |

I've uploaded a youtube clip of my mikrokorg rendition of kraftwerk's 'the model' here:

Piglet added to liven things up a bit. Tune in for next week's installment! _________________ someone wants my job, it is someone in this building! |

Thanks Wookie. This week Piglet and I tackle an early human league classic. Next week we'll be turning our attention to something a little more contemporary.

Piglet, by the way, is much better looking than Jive Bunny!

Well I was impressed, seeing as you only got it in December.
And I speak as one who cannot play a note.
And who only sings at the football.
Human League Mk1 tune then is it? _________________ "Computers. 20 years ago we had computers in the studios. Now we have studios in the computers." Telex |

I hope I'm not boring you all with these, but this week piglet and I tackle a popular Little Boots number, although I'm not massively happy with the results....

Hmm... Mathematics. Interesting choice!
Meaning, I think that most people would have gone for the obvious Stuck On Repeat (or maybe New In Town).
By the way, is Piglet trying to jeopardize your efforts?  _________________ I've been dreaming of a disco ever since... |

Greetings all.
Piglet's synthpopping efforts are still going strong. This week he turns his attention to a Yazoo classic. See here:
