Modular
Modulars are an endless source of inspiration and intrigue. I’ve refined my system a lot over the last few years and now it can do so many different things. I always turn to it to throw up something unexpected, but it’s like a duet – you manipulate it but it throws out almost as much as you put in. The Make Noise Erbe-Verb is a new favourite module. Many of the most exciting things happening in the modular world are digital and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for the format.

Adam S1 Monitors
I picked up these monitors cheap after my girlfriend scoped them out on eBay. To be honest I don’t know how suitable they are for my setup but I really like the sound of Adams and have a miniature pair at home too.

Elektron Analog Rytm
You can just see the Elektron Analog Rytm, which is an astounding groove box. I really love Elektron gear – the work flow is so smooth. Never underestimate convenience when getting ideas out.

Roland TR-808
What can I say that hasn’t already be said? I wish mine had MIDI though, because I’ve been using James Holden’s Humanisers a lot recently and my 808 doesn’t talk to the computer. I did record all the sounds to 1/4” tape though and have used those sounds on projects, so it’s getting on there one way or another.

Vintage Vibe 44
This is a Vintage Vibe 44 electric bass piano. It’s a modern Rhodes copy but it doesn’t weigh nearly as much. It’s got a beautiful sound and is an amazing sound source for processing with the modular or whatever else is at hand. It’s pretty mean through a Jet Phaser.

Sequential Circuits Prophet-5
Another classic. I use the DSI Prophet 08 live and that definitely has its own charms, but the Prophet-5 is pure muscle – huge, huge sound. It’s also just fun to pretend you’re John Carpenter and have a bit of a drone.

The Pyramid
The Pyramid is a prehistoric anachronistic sound generation/processing device found buried deep beneath a 12 million-year-old asteroid crater. It has a sister that was found at the top of the Temple Of The Moon in Peru. It might also have been dreamt up by [artist] Pete Fowler, commissioned into reality by [XL Recordings’] Richard Russell and built by a Nervous Squirrel. Arthur C Clarke once said he knew the answer but died shortly afterwards. It now resides in our studio, making frequent trips to shows whenever possible.
