    as for Mortal Kombat, I'm positive it will be bad but I'm gonna try to watch it with my 6 year old self in mind like the first one, that shit was a childhood staple. Christopher Lambert was at the premier, I got to meet fucking Raiden

    Best attitude for this film!

    The plot is rudimentary and predictable... but really, who's going for the plot in a Mortal Kombat movie?

    I went for the HIGH IMPACT VIOLENCE and thoroughly enjoyed the film. And it looks pretty decent too.

    Kano is a fucking stellar character and brings some gobsmacking comedy to the film. Not cheese like Johnny Cage in the first film (not hating that though, MK 1995 was a staple for me too!)

    This demo is fucking crazy.

    Great demo!! Someone recently put it to me:: "In 5 years time you'll be hearing the Microcosm on every fucking track. Instant classic."

    It's a really fucking delicious box. The subtle granular textures are beyond sublime, and I'm a big fan of the ambient random weirdness it does.

    It does what it says on the tin. Creates unreal microcosms of sound. Looking forward to other Hologram products in the future if this the game they bring.

    How you finding the Microcosm?

     

    I’m interested in it myself, it looks and sounds cool what I’ve seen.

    hey mate. Good question!

    I love the Microcosm. I'm really about bang-for-buck hardware, and this thing is certainly that. Yeah, nice phrase looper, but damn it has a lot more going for it.

    It's excellent for textured soundscapes, sonic washes, wall-of-noise, and experimental effect combinations. The major drawback is that I'm finding it's really only good for ambient, so if you're keen on that it's not really a Con. Just don't buy it expecting to do rhythmic stuff stuff all that well, unless you're just straight using the phrase looper with little or no effects. Though I did hook it up to a drum machine and it did some crazy rhythmic stuff from that, though at times the flutters of effects it creates can be a little too randomised and unpredictable. Again, not really a Con if you're going for something outsider and experimental. The microcosm loves highly resonant sound sources and goes wild when you feed in something that peaks really high (stringed instruments, percussive hits, 303 whistles)

    The re-imagining of loops and sounds is something to behold with this device. True to name, you can really find unique microcosms of sound from reinterpreted recorded material. Pretty clean sounding. You've probably seen a lot of videos demonstrating it with guitar, and its really made for that. I've been using it with synthesizers and it's a little bit of a fiddle, but once you spend some time with and tightly dial it in... yeah... fucking amazing.

    Overall, pretty solid box! I love adventuring into weird sounds and ambient stuff more so than composing anything, so this thing is the best FX box I could have possibly purchased. Have considered purchasing another one so I can have two separate instruments run into them for more weirdness overdubbing.

    lol takes me back to 2008.  i was well into his music and remember watching this on the family computer.  shame he could never match or top his early eps..

    Yeah! OutRun wasn't as great as I was hoping. But holy shit those EPs got heavy rotation for a while.
