I've halfheartedly followed what Tatsuya Takahashi has been doing on his blog over the last 6mths, but some how missed that is is the CEO of Korg Germany now. It wasn't until was looking for a manual for the Polygogo on E-RM's site that I read about how he designed the interface for the module and also how he and Maximilian Rest (E-RM main man) are, from April this year, running Korg Germany. After seeing what Takashi does in his spare time, and seeing how Max Rest decided to make a synth based on a nut-job conspiracy theory about the universe running of polygonally generated wave forms*, I am very interested to see what the two will get upto with their own big-name synthesiser development company.
It's still early days for the pair, but there is a nice "mission statement" on the front page of the site:
https://korg-germany.de/ wrote: | KORG Germany is the new Berlin subsidiary of KORG Inc.
Our focus is on musical instruments that need to exist. With so much out there, it’s easy to fall into a false sense of infinite choice and abundance. But we are, after all, fleeting beings who are afforded limited time on this planet.
Our aim is to build, develop and manufacture instruments that will make a difference during our time here. Those that will help the transition to a new awareness. Those that need to exist. Our instruments will be developed not only by the core team we are building, but also through per project partnerships and collaborations.
We are the flux, and the fabric it passes through.
TATSUYA TAKAHASHI
CEO

I does also state that job applications have closed (sorry to any German forum members for not finding out about this earlier ) so I'm thinking it'll not be too long before the first rumblings come out of Berlin!
*I bought one after seeing these demos: https://vimeo.com/335211828 https://youtu.be/rSq-aEEQFmA I'm a sucker for someone who reads a conspiracy theory and thinks "I wonder how I can make that into a synth?" _________________ Stuff I'm using: Umm right now, well there's a Volca Drum, a Micro Freak, an ADX-1, a Pulse, a Blofeld, a UNO Drum, KeyStep/Beatstep Pro/Keystep Pro (one of each), a Circuit, a LiveTrak L-12 and this nonsense: The Brief-case as it was about a bit over a year ago (the the complete ridiculous GAS monster collection here)and here |
