I just come back from a 6 hours Korg DS10 EXPO marathon. I had damn great Time and Asano DG has made a great job as MC of this show held in Shibuya! 

Today  (tomorrow for everyone not it the Holy country) I will finally get my Korg DS-10 card. Thanks to SanoDG, who I interview a couple fo weeks ago for an italian street culture magazine, I already played with the card and felt in love with it ever since. DS-10 is in the top spot of my otaku wish list (yes it beated even the Iphone 3g from Vodaphone!) and it's the perfect techno gadget to celebrate the 20th annyversary of ACID HOUSE (don't forget to download the official torrent: Summer of Love 2008 / Flower Power VS Acid House mashup album)!

Few days ago I went to interview Sanodg, the producer of the revolutionary DS card KORD DS-10.  I played with DS10 and it's even better than I tought!! The card will be released by Nintendo Europe before the end of the year but, if you wanna get it before the official european release, you can preorder it from Play Asia!!

Our friend Jaime pointed us to Create Digital Music blog post (ok I've been offline for a week so 2 days ago in my analog world are still a news) about Korg working with AQ Interactive to release an
MS-10 analog synth emulator for DS!

Now I just wait that Propellerhead will wake up and produce my old dreasm: a DS version of Rebirth (I'm dreaming about a portable version of Rebirth since Game Boy Advance and the first time I saw the DS I tough that Roland sooner or later will produce a card with a 303 or a 909 emulator) !
