Buy A Magazine, Get A Free Synth

This is a cool idea: The August issue of Otona No Kagaku (Japanese for Adult Of Science) will be a synth themed edition called the Synthesizer Chronicle. It will feature interviews from Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tomita and Fumitaka Anzai.

With the magazine comes the SX 150 Gakken Analog Synthesizer – which appears to be a basic battery-powered synth toy!

Last year, the magazine published a theremin issue.

If anybody knows anything about availability of this magazine outside of Japan, let us know in the comments!

  2. I bought this synth on ebay from the seller hobby_japan and i'm pretty sure it came with this magazine because it came with a thick book thing entitled "Synthesizer Chronicles" or somthing like that. Hope this helps.
