about

This track features the almighty Teenage Engineering OP-1 and was recorded some years ago. The track was retrieved and dusted down from a previously owned eMac. The OP-1 is a highly portable all in one synthesizer, sampler and sequencer. This product was Teenage Engineering’s first offering. The OP-1 is being used in a very basic way for keys and drum patterns. It was a piece that Martin took to a few poetry and spoken word nights in Manchester and London at the time but has rarely been played since.
