WTF?
In this KorgTV exclusive, Dr. Funk rocks the Korg Kaossilator, while Go Go Girl kisses the camera and plays air guitar.
The festivities are only marred by Inset Man’s unfortunate placement of the closeup camera shots.

EM’s David Battino had this to say about the Korg microKorg:
It’s easy to slip into critic mode and forget that making music is supposed to be fun. The MicroKorg is frustrating if you expect to play and program it like a full-size keyboard synthesizer, but as a portable, creative gadget, it stands alone. If you can justify spending $500 on a terrific-sounding musical toy (and I use that word in a very positive sense), you won’t go wrong with the MicroKorg.
The Korg microKorg retails for $399.
If you’ve used the Korg microKorg – leave a comment with your thoughts!
