The Kaossilator

Korg has just released a brand new music-making device (is it an instrument? sort of... maybe) called the Kaossilator. It's small, and features three buttons, a knob, and a small touchpad. Somehow, they've managed to create a device that lets you use these fairly limited inputs to create crazy techno beats almost effortlessly. It's kind of hard to explain, but check out this video if you are in to weird noises and musical gadgetry. It's in Japanese, but you can still get an idea for the crazy possibilities of the Kaossilator. Also, how cool is the guy in the video? Answer: too cool.



Sold out in Japan, not yet available in North America... but you can bet I'll be keeping an eye out.
