A solid (and beefy) reference text, considered canonical enough that it's often referred to by the authors' initials alone. A 5th edition is now available, but I haven't decided whether I'd prefer that one. |

Paperback is fine. |

| Gene Clark | No Other |
I prefer the original 1974 release, but I suppose the 4AD reissue is acceptable. |
|||
| Chet Faker | Built on Glass |
Or as I prefer to call it, Boobs on Glass. |
|||
| Lunar Vacation | Artificial Flavors EP | ||||
| Albert King | Born under a Bad Sign |
Will probably be very expensive. |
|||
| Albert King, Steve Cropper, Pops Staples | Jammed Together |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molecule model kit |
Mostly so I can make models of psychoactive compounds as decorations and statement pieces. Because most interesting compounds are quite complex, I may also require some extra pieces. |
||||
| Electrosmith | Daisy Patch | ||||
| Empress Effects | ZOIA Euroburo + desktop adapter |
Might skip the desktop enclosure and go for a powered 4ms pod. I definitely don't need it, since I have the regular pedal version, but… |
|||
| Molten Modular | Motion MTR |
Could get in 1U if I get a case with 1U rows. |
|||
|
| Tiptop Audio | Stackcables | controlvoltage.net/… | $5 |
One can never have too many Eurorack patch cables. Red and up are the sizes I need. |
| Krypt Modular | Oar | kryptmodular.com/… | $15 |
Passive 6-input combiner using diode OR logic. |
|

|
| Acid Rain | Navigator kit | acidraintechnology.com/… | $50 |
Not going into eurorack 1. It could be fun to have a bunch of these in a skiff dedicated to CV processing. Also available as fully built modules, but the kits are half the price and twice the fun. |
| Puffco | Plus | puffco.com/… | $90 | ||
| Krypt Modular | Keyboard Warrior | kryptmodular.com/… | $125 |
8 manual triggers/gates. |
|
| Great Scott Gadgets | YARD Stick One | hackerwarehouse.com/… | $155 |
The provided link includes a case and antenna. Maybe buy two? |

| Befaco | Hexpander | perfectcircuit.com/… | $390 | ||
| Pine64 | PinePhone Pro Explorer edition | pine64.com/… | $400 |
A smartphone running mainline Linux. Definitely not ready to be a daily driver, but it should be fun to play with regardless. |

| Acid Rain | Constellation | acidraintechnology.com/… | $550 | ||

|
| Intellijel | 7U performance case (104hp) | controlvoltage.net/… | $700 |
Quite lovely but a touch too expensive right now. |
|
| mki x es.EDU | DIY system | ericasynths.lv/… | $700 |
The DIY system, not the kit set. Not sure what I would do with it once I've assembled it. |

| Polyend | Tracker+ | controlvoltage.net/… | $800 | ||
| boredbrain | Xcelon | boredbrainmusic.com/… | $900 |
Hoo boy, if you thought the Hexmix was gorgeous (and expensive), then wait until you see this beauty. Should probably put it in its own dedicated case, like the 4ms Pod48X. |

Really nice for bedtime relaxation. Cooler colors (blue, purple, green) are preferred. |
